Taking the Pond Plunge

I did it! I resubmitted my Hamilton's Pond story just two minutes ago! I feel relieved and happy. I just wasn't sure it would happen. I sure hope I don't have to wait forever to hear back. The new edits make the story stronger, I think. There was one I declined to make: I didn't want to delineate everything about the scooter. I felt that a good illustrator could tell a funny story with the scooter better than I could write it out. We'll see what the editor thinks about my ignoring that particular comment. I really want to see this story work out.
