Greetings from Sussex, and I thank you for adding my name to your list of "friends." Perhaps you will be interested to hear that my literary agent, Ms King, has cajoled me into participating in a program she is calling "Fifteen Weeks of Bees," which will tie together the fifteenth anniversary of our first collaboration, The Beekeeper's Apprentice, and the publication of our newest venture in May, The Language of Bees. Appropriately, "Fifteen Weeks" will join my efforts on MySpace with hers on her web site and blog. Please join us starting on February 1.

When we spent our time in Jamaica, there were these stray beach dogs that just played around all day, napped in the shade, played some more, ate, slept - man.
What a great life! Thanks so much for the kind words about DUST and for friending me! You made my day!

And A Difficult Boy looks AWESOME. I have just put it on my wish list and will devour it, I bet. I love history, and have a huge interest in your subject matter.


Thanks again!

Ah history! The greatest soap opera ever. Science fiction may ask what would people do in these circumstances. History tells us.

My advice? Take those rules and throw them out the window with profound force and a wide smile, M.P. Those "rules" were created by people with little to no consideration for those fighting to get in the door. How anyone can expect an author to send one query at a time is a fool. This is your time, and while their runs forward, yours is ticking away. Don't let anyone stand in your way with their bureaucratic red tape. Get those queries out and never give it up.


As for the rewrites, I rewrote my book several times, and it was all worth it. It truly is a learning process, and all the editing and rewrites only strengthen your talent and make it grow. So don't look at your work as dribble, but as a work in progress, my friend. And when you're ready and it's ready you'll know it. You'll feel it, and it will be when you can finally sit back and say "that's it.
"

Trust me, it's soooo worth the effort.

Hey M.P. You know, I was at about 75 "NO's" before I got the proverbial "yes" too. LOL. I know what it's like to have the industry say no to your dreams. I think it's more than just persistence though. I think talent has to come into play, or else what you're selling is dribble...LOL. But both talent and persistence is a force to be reckoned with.....and that's something we as artists need to bring to the table every time.

No, thank you for being our friend. A simple search for historical interpreters, we didn't realize there would be so many here on MySpace.
Do you still work as an interpreter?
