Even though it's agony it IS exciting, another layer of the cake, and that's the thing really, whatever happens you can still go on writing... I'm still writing, doing nothing but, the last big push of full-time concentration.Amanda Mannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07009923261529219522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11084252.post-23165769820211330122008-05-15T21:00:00.000Z2008-05-15T21:00:00.000ZHoping it all works out for you, and that the axe ...Hoping it all works out for you, and that the axe falls elsewhere.womagwriterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02526923882402757423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11084252.post-37635935435459044342008-05-15T07:50:00.000Z2008-05-15T07:50:00.000ZHang in there.

The waiting is so awful, but no news is good news and all that. <BR/>Good luck with the therapy - hope it helps.<BR/>xLucy Diamondhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11831060852859704680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11084252.post-64625405174151488122008-05-15T06:58:00.000Z2008-05-15T06:58:00.000ZSending hugs, Amanda - it's such a difficult time,...Sending hugs, Amanda - it's such a difficult time, I know. Also sending hugs about the health issues - but huge congrats for getting it sorted. I really got a hell (can I say that?!?) of a lot out of my own recent therapy sessions - they got me through a very difficult year and a half. It's astonishing that things do get better - so hang onto that hope.<BR/><BR/>In the meantime, and going back to my first thought, it might help to start a fresh piece of writing? It always does me - my agent's had my last completed novel for nearly a year now and we're just - I think! - getting to the "this is nearly ready to go out phase". In that time, I've written another.<BR/><BR/>Hugs & stuff<BR/><BR/>A<BR/>xxxAnne Brookehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03982495677389302410noreply@blogger.com
