I have completed my contract with Ravenous Romance, have no other
deadlines awaiting me and am essentially a free agent author with a fantastic literary
agent as my wingman.
Wow!!
Of course, cast in a slightly darker light, I am now unemployed with no
assurance whatsoever that I will ever be published again.
Bummer.
Big, stinky bummer with toe fungus, actually.
But, I am choosing to dance in the bright, bright sunshine of “Wow!”
instead of cowering in the shadows with “Bummer.”
A foolish strategy, some will say.
A brilliant stratagem, my four-legged muse and I maintain.
And with this newly found freedom, my dog and I have set our sights on
the mainstream, where the only real (i.e. the “Look! I can afford toe polish
without skipping two meals!”) money is.
It’s a shame that a writer can’t survive in the smaller streams of
genre fiction. I’ve put 5 years and 17 novels into the m/m romance genre and
now I’ve got to walk away from it all just so my career can keep growing.
Now that, ladies and gents, is the true “Bummer” of this picture.
Until tomorrow…
Chloe
