I am so excited. *fist pump* I’m almost done with my revision of THE OPPOSITE OF GRAVITY and I’m confident I’ll be turning it over to my crit partners this week!!!! I’ll be tweaking and tinkering some more while my critters do their magic, then I’ll have to turn around their suggestions. But even with that left on my plate, I’m up over the hump of this monster. I feel really, really good right now and I try to never ignore those little moments of success. *Woo Hoo!* Those highs are what gives me momentum to get back up the other side when I hit the next hump in the publication process.
And though putting myself out there–the waiting and risk of failure is hard–you know that I’m a girl who gets excited about possibility. The idea of getting this book back into the hands of my agent gives me tingles.
POSSIBILITY.
POTENTIAL.
These are some of my favorite P words besides pizza and plethora. My little book is growing up and getting ready to go out into the world. *grin* This makes me very happy. A little nervous, but very, very happy.
Where are you in your writing process or in any big life project you’re working on? Do you like roller coasters? Are you able to celebrate each individual hump that you rise above? And do you scream on the way down????

Way to go, Kim! That’s a big accomplishment!
Thank you!!!!!
That’s awesome, Kimberlini! If I were a Piglet, I’d be all Puffed-up and Prancing Playfully for you :))
ROTFL!!!! The visual works just as well. :o)
I often check my favorite writing sites to read the success stories. Yes, I get excited for other people. It helps me stay positive about my own journey toward publication. My agent has submitted The Taste of Orange to several publishers. Right now, I’m slowly inching my way toward the top of the roller coaster and if she sells my manuscript you better believe that I’ll be screaming with joy on the way down. By the way, I like the title of your manuscript.
Woo hoo!!!!! I know it’s so hard to wait, but hang in there–I’ve got my fingers and my toes crossed for you. PS I love the success stories too!
