goompa: I'm very pleased to say that I've found a publisher (Mountain Spring House) for my new novel entitled "Different Ways of Being." The protagonist is a congenitally deaf young man and much of the story deals with the Deaf Culture. Probably 6-9 months away from publication
    DIS-illusioned: Come again; couldn't hear what you wrote. :) -
    pipersfancy: Well.. this is exciting news! Wonderful! -
    MERRY1: Good luck to you an interesting choice of subject. -
    Ben Colder : Huh! I hope you the best. Got ta go. my batteries are low. -
    Selina Stambi: Hear! Hear!! ... -
    Irish Rain: Haven't heard from you in quite some time...hope you are ok! -


goompa: I have a publisher who is very interested in my novel. Keeping my fingers crossed
    Irish Rain: congratulations on ...Doctors Advice...great work! -
    Selina Stambi: Keeping my fingers - and toes - crossed for you!! All the best - hope all your writing dreams come true .... -
    emrpoems: Congrats on you win with " Doctor's Advice" -

    Bravo! -
    Selina Stambi: Congrats, goompa! -


goompa: I've recently finished writing a novel about the Deaf Culture. The writing was the easy part; finding an agent or publisher isn't.
    DIS-illusioned: Maybe they can't hear you. -
    goompa: I've gotten a couple of nibbles from publishers. The worst thing is the waiting. -
    country ranch writer: you won so happy for you! -
