We floated my manuscript, In a Pit with a Lion on a Snowy Day, a few months ago and one of the publishers is “sniffing.” I don’t know exactly what that means since I haven’t gone down this road before, but I’ve had such a peace through this whole process. Most of life boils down ton our core value: work like it depends on you and pray like it depends on God.

I’ve got such a sense of destiny about this particular book. I believe God is going to open the right door. I believe I’ll find favor with the right publisher. It’s so hard being in a position where you literally have no control over what happens. I’ve learned that you are at the mercy of the publisher’s goals and timelines. But that’s good for me That is where faith is stretched and strengthened.

What’s cool is that the publisher who is sniffing is one of three publishers I’d put at the top of my wish list. We’ll see if anything materializes.
