I certainly FELT like throwing myself into that lake, especially when my then agent would only submit novels that she thought might not just be publishable, but would stand a chance of becoming a bestseller, because it wasn't just with published novels that there was a 'two strikes and you're out' rule. Latterly, it was with submissions as well! Two rejected submissions and no editor would look at a third. That's what I was told. Doesn't half induce a sense of panic. How about Dame Julian of Norwich for a dark age bestseller. Always had a soft spot for her!Catherine Czerkawskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14554969254207924049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2429560125838989988.post-28663813001069315262012-09-22T16:10:46.604+01:002012-09-22T16:10:46.604+01:00I really enjoyed this post and boy, have you hit t...I really enjoyed this post and boy, have you hit the nail on the head!Chris Longmuirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02488093821886798927noreply@blogger.com
