I feel like if I have an agent at least, I'll be that much closer to getting published and I could probably put off getting a job unless it was absolutely necessary.Melanie Stanfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00065112319140571241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3690071068685176270.post-20627017629205019682014-09-09T16:10:58.754-06:002014-09-09T16:10:58.754-06:00Thanks for the encouragement!

My youngest is only two so I still have a little bit, but it's still scary thinking about what's going to happen if I'm still at this point when that happens. You're doing everything right and I know you'll get there! If writing is your dream then make it happen, even if that means putting off getting a job when your youngest is gone all day. Have faith in yourself!prerna picketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06207620652405474672noreply@blogger.com
