Cricketus inboxis infestation carries on and my favourite pair of socks have developed twin holes. Not a great start to the day.
WIP holds steady at approx. 119K, with lots of cutting still going on and two brand new chapters added. So much for my "goal" of bringing it down to 115 by the end of yesterday. Oh well. It was kind of a random goal anyway.
pinkbow - Sorry about the R on your partial.But yay on getting feedback. I've gotten feedback on rejected fulls, but only form Rs on partials, so maybe that's a good sign for you?
Belle_91 - And sorry about the rejections. Yeah, 19 may not be "a lot" in this game, but you're totally allowed to feel crummy about them. Help yourself to a big bowl of consolatory ice-cream.
noranne - Yes, it sucks to be "in between" projects, but sometimes it's also nice to get a little breather and some distance from your various MSs.
Jeneral - OMG, that SUCKS about your document! I'd try what Funaek suggested--maybe it just auto-saved in an oddball location? I hope it's not gone-GONE!
Nova - I hope you hear back from the contest soon! (And that it's good news! ) I also hope you hear back from the agents you nudged. I HATE it when nudges on requested materials go absolutely nowhere (in my experience, with maybe 2-3 exceptions, that has been the case and it still really hurts).
Funaek - I agree with Jeneral and Nova that you've totally made the right call. You want an agent who's in love with your work, and it sounds like the one who offered is in that position. (Your dummy PB is adorable, so I'm not surprised! ) Good luck. Seems to me like this PB of yours is totally meant to be on the shelves!
ETA - And OMG, Funaek! Another agent call! That's awesome!!!! Keep us posted!
