Alas, only the 5th day of 2010 and my first rejection came via email.
Perhaps I should give up writing now...okay, I might be overreacting. If nothing else it was a nice rejection form. Plus, I am in good company with the others rejected by this particular agent but I still greatly enjoy his blog. You never know, maybe I'll win him over in the future with a different book. =)
So, now is the time to query the agents that don't share so many useful tidbits with the wannabe writers. They seem a bit scarier since you can't find out as much information about what they want to see in an unsolicited query letter. I also signed up for QueryTracker to keep...track..of querys (funny how that name shows what it does - what a concept!)
Nice entry in the Nathan contest. Congrats on the honorable mention :)
ReplyDeleteSorry about your first R. Keep at it though. Some say they don't get better, by I think it gets easier with time :)
