YA'LL CHANGE NOW, YA HEAR?


I’m sure’ ya’ll know Shakespeare’s saying…
“what’s in a name?”
I’ve never really thought about it much though...
Until yesterday.
As ya’ll know…
I’m submitting to agents this month…
(and will till I run out of agents to submit to)
And because I’m in Mexico…
I’m only doing e-queries for now.…
So there I was, ready to send a query…
To one agent, that according to my research...
Looked promising…
Until I saw their email address:
Slushpile@yah0--.com
(Not kididing)
And I thought, YOWSA!
That’s seems mean and rather off-putting…
Or is that their idea of a joke?
Or what?
So I didn’t send it.
But then this morning…
Looking for a motivational quote for my blog…
I came upon this quote…

"I discovered I always have choices
and sometimes it's only a choice
of an attitude."  unknown


Well ya know what?
I'm gonna change my attitude...
I'm gonna send that query to "Slushpile"...
Because I'm not gonna let a name deter me.
So?
Ever have an attitude changing moment?


Always, Em-Musing

P.S. sorry for all my ya'll's and gonna's...
it must be from watching too many episodes of...
Swamp People
Ya'll have a great weekend now, ya hear?

STEP AWAY FROM THE BLOG

It's 4:30 in the morning...
My conscience is still in bed snoring...
I want to post but I—
WHAT are you doing?
Dear God, you scared me!
No blogging this morning. Submissions, remember?
Look conscience I sent out—
Step away from the blog, Leigh. Now!
Alright already, I'm going, I'm going. Damn!
I heard that.
arrgghh
Heard that too.   

SUBMISSIONS STILL IN PROGRESS



Always, Em-Musing
