Putting It Out There (Again)

This isn't much of a post except as a note that I'm putting Seven Thunders out there again.  I submitted it to a publisher last week and to an agent earlier this afternoon.  It's the effort of trying, to keep trying, that I'm pursuing this time.  I've been sitting on this manuscript for close to a decade at this point.  I've made sporadic efforts over the years in getting it published, and I guess I've got renewed determination to make something happen.  I'm actually more interested in pursuing the agent angle, something I've never really done before, even though of course the major publishers certainly prefer that.  I was reading a book about one of the major editors of the pulp magazine era who specialized in mobilizing the science fiction scene, and it got me thinking, not so much about submitting stories to the journals out there (I was never that motivated in that avenue), but the thought that I have this material that I think has potential to be something, and so many other stories just waiting to be written, and I might never actually write them unless I get this one in print.  

Well, stranger things have certainly happened.
