Okay, I'm not talking about board games or card games or actual games. I'm talking about "the games people play". And let's face it, there are plenty of games played in publishing. Even Christian publishing. Gasp!
And I can't play them. I just can't. Some of the required steps to secure an agent, a contract, attention, I don't do well. I'm not speaking of synopses, or the three chapter submissions, or the practical aspects of sending a manuscript. I'm speaking of the "do's and don'ts" of expected conduct. If I've met someone, I'm not going to pretend I haven't.
Maybe it's that "I gotta be me" thing. Things must make sense to me. And some things just don't. Maybe a lot of things don't.
Just some thoughts on the publishing scene . . .
Father, help me to be the one you want me to be. Always. I'm desperate for you. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
