DouglasCootey #tkahk Update: Rejected. The agent isn't sure it's strong enough to capture a publisher's attention. Time to send it to next agent & pub.

DouglasCootey Just sent off my revised #tkahk ms to the agent who gave me feedback. I’m actually more nervous this time around than the first time.

briannajoy Finished #tkahk around 9am instead of sleeping. Can do w/o insomnia, but like being finished. I shall print & look over before sending away.

DouglasCootey (My 11yo actually asked me to put my daddy hat back on. Duty calls, but glad I finished my writing goal. Cowboy hat coming off…) #tkahk

DouglasCootey Done! Time for a cold drink of Sarsaparilla in the dying rays of the day, then put my daddy hat back on. #tkahk

DouglasCootey I love how I boldly state that sundown is my goal, THEN notice sundown is at 5:37pm. So typical. Typing…typing… #tkahk

DouglasCootey Music cued. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tv-VxrsF9sI) Hat placed on askew. OK, revision four. You’re going down. #tkahk

DouglasCootey Need to focus on my last blog article for the week. Then exercise, go for a walk, and work on #tkahk until I pass out.

DouglasCootey Feeling irrelevant today so I think I'll finish #tkahk

DouglasCootey Finished work on #tkahk for the day. A meager 27 words that came ever so difficultly, but they add scope to the narrative. Pleased.

DouglasCootey Bright burst of inspiration for my book #tkahk , followed by a power failure and systemic overload. Now thinking by candlelight.

DouglasCootey Next up: #tkahk revision. But I may get out of my pajamas first. Been busy working and forgot to dress. #ADHD

DouglasCootey Received rejection from agent. Fast response. Filled with words of encouragement & suggestions. Not depressing at all. Will revise. #tkahk

SplinteredMind Lost in an insomnia-fueled daze, but mailed off a manuscript. Still, maybe I shouldn't be in a bathrobe when guests arrive… #tkahk

DouglasCootey Agent emailed. I'm ringing in the new year w/ a submission out in the ether. Will contact more agents on Mon. "Take a Hike!" lives. #tkahk

DouglasCootey Letter to agent written. Just enough cheek and abject desperation to be a proper pitch. #tkahk

DouglasCootey @mousewords Hey, thanks! It feels really good. Such a small thing, but a large part of me. I'm sure you understand. #tkahk

DouglasCootey Just realized I forgot to use my own hashtag all day long so none of my #tkahk tweets will be archived with #tkahk. Drat.

DouglasCootey It's been a few hours & I still like my picture book ms. That is a very good sign. Yes, indeed. It means I can mail it & move on #tkahk

DouglasCootey Still feel good about finishing 2nd draft of #tkahk last night. Next draft will work on making the text sparkle, but putting aside for now.

DouglasCootey Working in #tkahk. I hope to have 2nd draft finished today, but there are twice as many words as I planned. May sell extras on eBay.

DouglasCootey Looking over notes and realized that #tkahk is already in 1st draft. Tomorrow I will hack & hew it into a 2nd draft. There will be blood.
