I've come to my senses (I.E. Stopped throwing fits about it) and am working on my 4th novel. <BR/>Katie from AlbuquerqueKatiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17035298745671239134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6315921425588478095.post-27569493997667877192008-02-20T09:00:00.000-05:002008-02-20T09:00:00.000-05:00Robin, I'd love to be entered in your contest, too...Robin, I'd love to be entered in your contest, too.

I think the author of Click Clack Moo, Cows Who Type (which was one of the few picture books ever to hit the NYT Bestsellers list) got over 100 rejections on that and other picture book mss before placing it. Including ones for the book in question that said kids wouldn't "get" it because they don't know what typewriters are.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for starting my day with a smile :)))<BR/><BR/>(ps.
