Phew! I am going ga-ga from staring at my PC for very long stretches of time over the last week - editing, editing, editing. It's time for me to distance myself from my completed MS and forget about it for a while.

I will instead take a little time out and plot novel number two in more detail and hopefully make some progress with that.

It's all go, as I'm attending a publishing workshop in the Irish Writer's Centre tomorrow, where some leading names in the
industry will be talking about exactly what Agents and Publishers want and expect from authors, and how to achieve success when pitching to either.

I'm telling you this as though I will be there schmoozing to beat the band, when the reality is, I will more likely to be struck dumb by my inability to sell myself and end up cowering in a corner, rocking in place, hoping that the force is with me as I silently will the biggest agent in Ireland to sign me on the spot and hand me a publishing contract by the time the seminar is finished!
 
Well, I can dream, can't I?
