The best part of Doctor Who Episode “Utopia”… Doctor: Why are you taking off your clothes? Harkness: I’m going in. Doctor: Yeah, but the radiation only effects flesh. Not clothes. Harkness: Yeah, but I look good! Yes, yes you do.

The Nicest “No”

I have just received the kindest “declination letter” of my querying career. It is with a mixture of disappointment and amusement that I share it here, with you all. 

Dear Lexi,

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to consider MONARCH (great title btw!). I appreciate your patience in allowing me to fully read through these sample pages and give your project the ample attention it deserves, and I apologize for the length of time that it has taken me to respond.

I thought you had a really interesting premise and though I am impressed with your creativity, I just didn’t quite fall in love with the story as much as I hoped. As you know, this is a highly subjective decision and another agent or editor may have a completely different opinion from mine. 

Again, thank you for giving me the chance to consider your work and I wish you every success in placing it! 

Sincerely,

…

I wonder if he could become a zombie… Hmmm… Test! And Olive? Yeah, Zombieland anyone. She can get my back any day.

A 29th Birthday Challenge

When I was in highschool my creative writing teacher made us keep a writing journal. It didn’t have to be a “dear diary” or anything like that. Each day it could be something different; a short story, a poem, a letter to myself. It could be anything. 

After I graduated I stopped writing in journals. I turned my back on all the creativity that such discipline would have offered and I moved on to novels. I never really looked back. Everyone once in awhile I would turn my gaze back to journals. I would attempt to persuade myself that it was for my own good, but ultimately I would neglect the idea after a few days. 

This time is different. I am challenging myself to keep a journal for 365 days. From this birthday until the next one. It will not be a “dear diary” kind of thing, more of a creative juices kind of thing. But it’s a challenge, it is first and foremost a “willpower” thing.
