Decisions in Haste

Confusion reigns supreme in my life right now.

I've had to make some major decisions regarding my son's acting, but I think it's all good.

Suprisingly after sending only four resumes to see if we could interest any agents in representing him we got two calls - that's a pretty good percentage - unfortunately the second call came after we had already decided to go with another agency.

And although we are not contractually obligated (new agent believes you don't need a piece of paper to keep you where you want to be) I believe the decision I made was a good one.

I really like his new agent and her vision for his future success.

On my job front though I am coming up dry. I still feel that finding a job outside the home would be a mistake of huge proportions. I need to be self-employed if things are going to work for my son's acting. Finding a suitable self employment though is daunting to say the least

I still continue to work on my book but must admit the enthusiasm isn't as strong now.

Not sure why though - perhaps because it's such a light subject and has no real depth? But honestly that was my choice for my first book.

It could also be the lack of response I received when I threw caution to the wind and posted the first chapter on fictionpress.com

Although maybe I'm giving up too easy - maybe I should post another chapter and just see.

My inclination is to self publish and see if interest in my book on a site like that would capture the attention of bigger representation.

Today is set to be busy for me getting my son ready for his next trip to Hollywood, but I also need to latch on to my domestic side today and get some cleaning done, so for now this blog will have to constitute my fulfill my daily writing quotient.
