Optimistic

The first publisher that I sent my manuscripts to; said that they would not be able to look at my work for a long time. They are not the only fish in the sea. Today I stopped at the post office and picked up five 'flat rate envelopes' - Priority Mail. I have 20 short stories [limit 4 lbs] that I can stuff into the envelope for $4.95. Then I will send them off to five different publishers. And maybe for good measure, I will get five more envelopes. A couple of artists have said they were interested in drawing a sample illustration for me. I will include a few sketches with my stories. Nothing ventured................... Take time to follow your dream.
