You must be very well organized. <br /><br />Best of luck with your agent search, and I'm looking forward to reading the second book in the Super Villain Academy series., as well as your novellas. Self publishing sounds like a challenge, but it's also a good idea. There's not those months of waiting. Good luck there too.Beverly Stowe McClurehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02176195451841801819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779997262227613456.post-5991587341089490192014-02-10T08:00:42.994-08:002014-02-10T08:00:42.994-08:00Thanks, Katie.
