And about re-subbing, please ask Brenda. I don't know how she's handling re-subs, because she's the one managing the online forms. I'm fine with whatever she decides. :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482654021641010175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-200721485261992830.post-71294112839637535832014-08-18T20:51:39.557-04:002014-08-18T20:51:39.557-04:00Hi Monica!

Is there anyway I can resend it to you? The neurotic perfectionist in me at least wants you to reject my MS based on story, not a bad query that misses the essence of the MS.

I like that there are inner demons for your MC and also that the MS has action because of what the MC is. If I like the writing/voice/mc then this could be up my alley! :)<br />I hope this helps!

I'm not *that* drawn to Roman and Greek historicals, but then, it's not an absolute no.
