I thought I might do a bit of poetry again when I feel the time is right. I hope you have a good year writing and getting published. Good luck with your submissions.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12958648944691180657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5996497916734343831.post-4867013282482700732018-01-07T12:08:42.975+00:002018-01-07T12:08:42.975+00:00Happy New Year Heather, that sounds pretty impress...Happy New Year Heather, that sounds pretty impressive - not least of all your consistency in submitting work every month. I seem to have got out of the habit of submitting lately so one of my pledges to myself this year is not to sit on things for ever but to keep sending them out. I'm sorry you had a bad experience with an agent, it sounds rather like something that happened to me when I sent some poems to a potential mentor for critiquing - I felt completely knocked back by his response and hardly wrote anything new for 6 months. But I got my mojo back and I'm sure you will too. All the best for 2018.Robin Houghtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08170214005426428270noreply@blogger.com
