A roller coaster of writing
Phew. It’s been a bit of a roller-coaster day in terms of writing for Harlequin.
To recap, for some time I’ve been interested on writing more stories for Harlequin. I’ve established myself in the niche of Amish inspirational in the Love Inspired line, but I have more stories inside me and thought I’d try applying to the Heartwarming (sweet) line to supplement my writing schedule.
Accordingly, early last September I sent a proposal to my agent, who forwarded it to my Love Inspired editor (apparently one editor shepherds writers throughout the Harlequin empire). As of yesterday I still hadn’t heard anything back from the Heartwarming line.
When I inquired about the status of the proposal, I learned it had been overlooked and not yet sent to Heartwarming at all. (Cue a wail of frustration.) When my editor, who is a total sweetheart, asked why I wanted to write for Heartwarming, I explained I was trying to maximize my writing potential and was interested in expanding.
After some back and forth between my editor and agent and myself, my Love Inspired editor invited me to pitch some non-Amish stories to her with an eye toward publishing more than four books a year. She encouraged me to create another mythical town in western Montana as a setting.
I – am – totally – stoked! I told her I would have six pitches on her desk by Monday.
Here’s where things might get interesting. I’m asking you, my dear readers, to consider what kind of stories you’d like to see written. Ever wanted to try your hand at plotting out an inspirational romance? Now’s your chance. I can’t guarantee my editor will accept the idea, but wouldn’t it be great if she did?
So … pitch away!
