One of the writers I work with (not one of my clients) asked me yesterday, "So how are you doing with your writing?" O.K. I had to cringe at that question. I pushed her with her writing and now she is pushing me. My answer was, unfortunately, "nothing."
Oh did I get an earful for that comment.
But, I just have not had the time. I know this sounds like an excuse, but it is the way I decided I wanted to run my business. If my clients had work to do, or I had something for the agency on my "to do list" then I would put that first.
I just work that way.
Yes, I know that there is a certain agent out there that will likely read this and probably email me or call me or Tweet me to get on my case. I am still going to make her deadline she set for me. But... (yes I have used that a lot lately), my clients come first.
Just thought you would like that perspective.

Sounds like great customer service on your part. I'm sure your clients appreciate your devotion. It's what all writers hope of their agent.
