So, maybe I'll try to meet with another agency?

It seems Tennessee isn't really panning out for me. After weeks of waiting for a phone call or email response and receiving nothing, I suppose that means they didn't think I would fit in with their agency.

Which is fine. I can't be bummed out about it. I've been rejected by MANY agencies. They're a tough crowd to please!! And, I can't blame them. The only thing they're thinking is dollar signs. And, if they don't think they'll make money off of me, then I don't want to be a part of their agency anyway -- because that means I'm not making money either.

Sigh.

It is tough at the same time to *want* to be in an agency. I've been a freelance model for so long, I've gotten fond of the idea of making my own rules and judgement calls. Once I sign with an agency, I can no longer participate in local things that I want to be a part of without consent of my agent -- which is usually unlikely.

Unless, I could sign out of town! Then it wouldn't matter what I did here. But, I haven't had much luck with the out of town / out of state agencies :(

There is a newer agency downtown that I've been thinking about meeting up with. Through the woman who hired me for Aveda, I found out this agency has an interest in me. They have open calls on Mondays until 6, and this week I'm off at 5 .. so I suppose I could always go down and check them out.

I'm just nervous :/

Not because of fear of being rejected. I'm pretty used to that. I guess it's the fear that they will want to sign me and I'll give up all my freelance model rights..

Decisions decisions...
