As you’d know,
I’m Cobus Vermeulen.
I’ve not yet been Published and I’m hard at work getting my First Publishable Novel ready to either send out to Publishing Agents or Publishers themselves.
I’ve been Dreaming Intensely for as long as I can remember.
It’s only been since the Day when I annexed my Mother’s Olivetti Type-writer that I’ve seriously started to Note down all the Wild Ideas I’ve had.
I started writing the Hardest of them all, which would be Short Stories.
Not only in English but my Mother-tong; Afrikaans as well.
These are only a few Ideas I’ve had over the past few Months and I’ll add two Short Stories which I’d finished Editing as well.
In due time you Might see something more as well…
Who knows, I’m Reaching for the Galaxy… Might land on a S T A R!
Thanks for Popping around!
Enjoy.
Thanks for the follow! I’m looking forward to your novel. ^_^
Hi there,
Thanks to you as well.
Believe me,
I’m looking Forward in getting it Finished for Publishing.
They say the Last part feels the Longest…
😀
😀 … hope it’ll be soon!
I’ve got almost 66 for Final Edit. There still about 100 or less coming.
I’m looking before Year End,
I’ll steadily place parts of the First Chapter here as well…
Then You can tell me what You think…
😀
Wow! That’ll be great! What’s the title?
It’s a Young Adult,
Herbert’s Hat.
The First Four are finished,
Then I found there’s TWO more to come…
Imagine that!
I can imagine that! 😀
You can do it! 😉
I’m a Graphomaniac to some Extent,
At least you can get a good indication of what I can do if you’ve read some of my Thoughts & Ideas…
The Only thing against me right now us time!
That’ll pass as well…
Hope to see you in print…virtually 🙂
Hi there,
Thanks so much, really do Appreciate it.
I promise you, I am working on getting just that done.
ALSO, it must be as Good as I can make it…
Otherwise, I’m just wasting My time and Producing less than Good quality for everyone out there.
All The Best To You!
I like what I read. Funny, I wrote a book about 5 years ago, but after 10 rejections gave up. Needed to eat and went back to Health and Safety. Maybe I’ll have another try?

Hi there,
Happy to hear you wrote one AND that you finished it,
That’s actually the Biggest issue for most,
Not finishing their book.
Rejections are part of Life,
Now then, are you married, reason being how many times have to Connected to get to the Best possible person for a relationship.
I’m still working AND will until Whenever I land a Contract…
BUT then,
Never ever give-up on your Passion.
This will also help,
When you Firstly write for Yourself.
If it takes longer, try get as Professional Editor OR Froof-reader looking at your work to See why maybe you were rejected.
Not making the same possible mistakes, not being rejected because of them again…
Just one other thing,
It is Really Hard to get there, not the easiest at getting.
All The Best To You!
Cobus
Thanks for your reply Maybe I’ll take my earlier attempt out of mothballs??? I am not married. Who on this earth would put up with someone who is never around? I travel to Mexico and South America to do my work. When I am home I am either off to some function that might do me some good, or catching up on my sleep. I live in a penthouse in Vancouver and a shack in La Paz. Strange, but I am very happy. Go figure? SQ
I understand,
Hopefully you do understand the Effort involved with Publishing the Normal way.
If your work is good, Edited and Ready,
Self-Publishing can work as well.
What kind of work do you do?
