The news couldn’t be better for the two kittens I’m fostering. They have a home. A wonderfully loving home – TOGETHER! Friends of ours stopped by the other evening. They’d had a beautiful cat years ago and were now – though I was unaware – in the ‘market’ for another. Well, when they saw these little guys, it was like the Fate’s said, “Here you go! Spread the love and be happy!”
They will give these little guys as many hugs and kisses as we’ve given them during these formative days. It’s going to be hard to say goodbye to them but at least I know they’ll be heading off on a wonderful and happy life journey. We’ll have them here until the mid to end of May, though, so by then they might have to pry these kittens from my hands. 🙂 It’s okay. I’ve done and will continue to do what’s necessary to ensure these guys are as social and affectionate as cats can be. I couldn’t be happier to know they’re going together to this particular home.
And in other news… I posted my query to my romance writer’s discussion board and received some fantastic feedback. I wish I’d posted it before I sent it to agents, but there you have it – the way my Gemini mind works is not always logical. So… I’ve revised my query and am ready to send it to the next round of agents when/if my final query and contest entry come back with R’s like the rest of them did.
And in yet other news… the weather here is finally spring-like and I cannot wait to get out into the glorious sunshine. My hope today is that Daughter and I can spend the early afternoon in the park for lunch and some studies. I think photography class should be switched to today so we can take some early spring photos of the park and marina.
Yup. Even with rejections flowing in… life can indeed be good.
Yay about the kitties!
Is there a reason you have to wait until the remaining responses (I refuse to say they’d be rejections because they might not be that – you just need one to be accepted!) to come in before you send new ones out?
Laura,
Well… I don’t really HAVE to wait. I do worry, however, that my presentation is not as it should be and so hesitate to send it out again until I know for sure. Feedback on the rejections has been vague, but what I’ve received from fellow writers in my RWA group indicate inadequate presentation might indeed be my problem. So… right now, I’m revising the query and hoping to finally get it right.

So glad you found a home for the kittens. Good luck with the queries.
