2009: get The Novel published

waiting to hear from the first batch of agents.

Paws crossed, people.

On the bright side, if I do get rejected, I’ll be able to tell myself it was by the same idiots who turned away a Booker prize winner in disguise

the first four chapters to read last night. He said it was very good (naturally, he had to say that), and snorted with laughter quite a few times, which made me happy. He also said it was very high paced, when I had spent ages worrying that it wasn’t high paced enough! Hurray!
