it happened!! My first ever audiobook is now a reality! WOOHOO!

August 19, 2021

SO EXCITED!! I am uploading each chapter of The Wrong Choice to ACX (Audiobook Creation Exchange). ACX is the avenue by which Amazon.com sells audiobooks. Each chapter receives a quality review to ensure they meet ACX's submission requirements. I have uploaded 10 chapters so far, and only one needed a slight alteration. I shall keep you apprised of the process in the coming days.

Audiobook Copyright! Yes, that's correct. I am in the process of receiving the copyright for the audiobook I made for The Wrong Choice (previously called One More Tear). What? I never mentioned that before? How irresponsible of me. From November 2020, through July 2021, I have worked diligently on recording my book, The Wrong Choice (using my own voice instead of hiring out). It is complete and before I send it off to Audible for review, I need a copyright number, and that is where the process is. It will take 3 months to receive that copyright number (I had to send physical copies of the audiobook. It was too big a file to send digitally). I shall do a better job in keeping you informed of the status. Fingers crossed!

REJECTED for the 3rd time! Yes, that's correct. The Rosenberg Group Literary Agency passed on representing me. I'm still not discouraged. On to agency #4. As always, I will keep you posted on the progress.

REJECTED AGAIN! Phooey! Foiled again! I received my second rejection from the Spencerhill Associates Literary Agency by not hearing from them for 3 months. Not to worry, though. My 3rd query letter is flying across the country to The Rosenberg Group in Massachusetts. Failing is part of this process and that is why I am posting my failures. The first two query letters were not worded correctly. I learned that fact when doing more research on query letters. I am hoping this 3rd one will at least earn me a request for a synopsis or several chapters for review. As always, I will keep you posted on the progress.

Sept. 18, 2018

NO WORD YET! It's been a month and I have not heard anything from Spencerhill Associates on the result of my query letter asking them to represent me. Maybe no news is good news. Continue to keep your fingers crossed for me!

However...after two months of writer's block, inspiration tapped me on the shoulder and planted a seed--a "Write Your Sequel" seed. That's all it took to write the first five pages of a sequel to "One More Tear." Now I have something to do while waiting to hear from Spencerhill Associates!

REJECTED! I received my FIRST REJECTION LETTER from the Knight Agency today. Not to worry, though. Rejection is merely a part of the process. No sooner did I receive a rejection, I sent out QUERY LETTER #2 to Spencerhill Associates. It will take up to 3 months to hear back from them one way or the other. Keep your fingers crossed!

Aug. 13, 2018

I'm doing it! I am so excited to send out my very first QUERY LETTER to a Literary Agency. My first attempt is with The Knight Agency who represents my genre of romance novels. I will keep you posted on how it goes. WISH ME LUCK!

Stay Tuned! "ONE MORE TEAR" is in the editing process and won't be out for several months. It takes a while to transform a manuscript into its best self and I have an excellent team working on it. In the meantime, I ask for your patience. Come back for updates as time goes on. While you're here, please scope out my 5-book Romance/Science Fiction series entitled, "A Quest of the AGES."

Until we meet again, enjoy your journey of reading wherever it may take you.
