I'm sitting on pins and needles here...

Okay, so today is Thursday, February 25th. No big deal, right? WRONG!!! Today is the day that Amazon.com is supposed to announce the first round winners of their National Breakthrough Novel Award.

Needless to say, I am one of the entrants waiting to hear if I've made the first cut.

This is painful. Truly, truly painful. I mean, when you say that the winners are going to be announced on Thursday, February 25th, shouldn't that mean early in the day? How am I going to function until I know the results??

There were 10,000 entries accepted - no more than that. I know that mine was accepted in that general form. The first round winners will then have excepts of their novel put on Amazon.com for people to vote on. AAAHHH!!! Honestly, I feel sick to my stomach right now.

It's going to be a long day, I can tell you that.

To be continued...
