“Believe in You – Submit Your Manuscript” by Joan Y. Edwards
Believe in you. Show belief and love of yourself and your writing. Submit your manuscript this month.
Today is a great day to fall in love with you and your writing. This is the month to get seriously romantic about your manuscripts and your submissions to publishers, agents, contests, and critiques.
What? You don’t have a plan! You don’t have a clue about how to do submit your manuscript. This is your lucky day. I have a plan that will work for you. There’s only one catch. You have to believe in yourself and your writing. You have to keep that belief alive through thick and thin. I know that is not easy. I’ve been disheartened myself…many times. But we have to keep that little light of belief shining within us.
Step 1 Get your work critiqued, edited, and proofed. Step 2Choose the publisher, editor, agent, or contest for this writing project. Step 3 Write the pitch, query letter, cover letter, resume, bio, and/or proposal as required by the guidelines of the editor, agent, or contest you chose for submission this time. Step 4 Time to Submit to publisher, agent, editor, or contest.
Celebrate you every day.
You are a gift to our world
Never Give Up

Hi Joan,
Happy 4th Birthday to Pub Sub. A tip for getting manuscripts in top shape: Give your writing a good workout. How? With quality critiques. Some critiques carry more weight than others. If your mama says your story is sweet, rate that as a One on a scale from 1-5. If your critique group says you need to show the MC’s feelings instead of telling readers that the MC is sad, give that critique a Five! Get critique from the “heavy weights.”
