This is why I love the romance community. Thanks for the hugs, the cheering on and sharing your own experiences. I was definitely disappointed with the pass, even though it wasn't unexpected, but I didn't feel teary. These comments have 'touched' me, though, and now I do feel teary. Thanks. :-)<br /><br />ps. Kate, I deleted one of your comments because it was a duplicate.vanessa jayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11059178422559443067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1106311725078001912005-01-21T07:48:00.000-05:002005-01-21T07:48:00.000-05:00Hugs, Jaq!

I dubbed it my "Manuscript of Many Warm Rejections". <br /><br />Then it won a contest I'd forgotten I entered it in. Then it won another and another. All this after I'd stuck it in a drawer. In the end it got me my agent too. I haven't sold it, maybe I never will, but now it's my lucky ms.<br /><br />I think that ms of yours is your lucky manuscript too. :D So yes, do a contest or two. I think we'll be celebrating your success with it shortly.Sylvia Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06489243230694413409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1106264107313958832005-01-20T18:35:00.000-05:002005-01-20T18:35:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Kate Allanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02425834913219662421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8664187.post-1106264082680639192005-01-20T18:34:00.000-05:002005-01-20T18:34:00.000-05:00Certainly query him with your next project.

I'd leave yours to one side for a while (mine's been resting since 2001!).
