Well, the first round of queries are submitted. Now the fun part: The waiting game!
Roy  Author Icon
With the Nosedive No More kickstarter campaign now in the hall of unfunded projects, I'm well on my way down that old query road. I should be getting the first rejections (in the form of crickets) in about 6-8 months! Whoo! Hoo! It's so much fun!

With just 5 days left, it’s safe to say the Nosedive No More Kickstarter campaign will end without reaching its goal. As the sun sets on April 1st, Nosedive will enter those hallowed halls of projects un-funded.

Since I know not everyone has time to read an entire manuscript, I added an audio excerpt to my campaign page. Visit {https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nosedivenomore/nosedive-no-more?ref=user_me...} to have a listen.

I've added the item number to my last post. Unfortunately, I couldn't ge the link to work but if you follow the hashtag, It'll take you to the backer tracker page and from there you can go to the campaing overview for more info; if interested.

Thanks again S. for the head-up!
Hi Roy,

The links use curly brackets, not round ones, e.g.

{item:2225657}

gives

"Nosedive No More

while

{bitem:2225657}

gives a lot more detail

Writing.Com Tools -> WritingML: Docs & Help

Finally launched my Kickstarter campaign fund my publishing project for Nosedive No More. If you'd like to know more about this project you can visit the campaign page at kickstarter.com. Feel free to check out the manuscript here (Item: 2225657)on Writing.com and share your thoughts!

I look forward to hearing from the community!

The kickstarter is a 404 error.

And if you'd like us to read it, put the ID number as {item:XXXXXX} where the X's are the item's number. That way we can go straight there.

Good luck!

S🤦‍♂️ Author Icon - finally got it to work! Thanks again!

Yet another revision. Will I ever be finished?


There's a missing verse:

How many notes must a man write down
about all the typos he's found?
How many times must he revise his work
to get the damn thing off the ground?
How many times can he rewrite it all
and still remain mentally sound?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
the answer is blowin' in the wind.
