On the Mend

Annie is recovering nicely--good appetite, chases Thisbe, sharpens claws, jumps on tables and chairs. Went back to the vet this morning. We couldn't get her in the carrier and then we couldn't get her out. Healthy cat behavior. Vet said her heart and lungs sounds good, temperature normal, and her color is good. What? What does it mean that the cat's color is good? You look at the cats gums. Should be pink. Now you learned something.

A publisher really really liked Promiscuous Mode but he already has 3 Wisconsin books. Sometimes the only luck is bad, but I tell myself that if one likes it another will too. After all, two agents have also loved it. I'm in the middle of the online synopsis class and learning a lot. I was doing it all wrong, which may account for why neither of the books has sold. Duh!

Maybe 2007 will be the year, seven being a lucky number and me continuing to write and grow and figure stuff out. Mi madre said, "you always have to learn things the hard way." There's an easy way? Really? How about that!
