Nerves are the worst thing in the world for an unpublished author, in my opinion. My friend still has the "completed" version of my novel and is currently working through editing it. She says she loves it and that it is a great story, which is exciting news, but there hiding in the back ground is a nervous feeling of will a potential literary agent love it just as much too...nerves do stink.
I have been throwing around the idea of putting some of the novel here on my blog for people to read, maybe generate interest - do some self publicity, but I'm terrified! Not quite sure how a few of my friends put themselves out there the way they do.
While I mull this around, here is a link to a little bit that I posted back in April, scroll down to the second set of BLUE writing and you will find the section of Bullies (which is actually no longer the title of the novel). Let me know what you think and I might find the courage to post a bit more - which would make my friend who is editing it VERY happy. She's been trying to get me to post parts of it forever :)
