Nancy Coffey Literary & Media Representation

Congrats on the book, ANT!

Sandra, good luck! LIke I said, she replied to my first 25 pages the same night, and said to send the full via email and snail mail ASAP. I"m hoping that means she'll read it quickly--and I'm hoping she'll be just as fast (and hopefully as positive--sh seemed very enthusiastic and nice) with your partial!! Good luck!

Hi Blind Writer. Thanks for the good wishes. Maybe Nancy Coffey wants to read your book too. They had me send mine the same way; e-mail and snail mail. Joanna takes the e-mail ones, Nancy likes the hard copies. I wish you much luck. Have a good night. ANT

Thank you, Ant! Actually, you're good wishes may have worked. Joanna emailed me last night and asked if she could call me today. I'm hopig that means what I think it means. "squeek!"

Wow! Good luck, Blind Writer! Be sure to keep us updated.

Whoa! Fingers crossed for you.

Awesome Blind Writer!! Here's hoping it what you are hoping for. Let us know.

Gratz! I hope she wants to read mine. Mine isnt ready yet otherwise I would Query

Thanks guys! But what could this mean? I mean....she'd just email if it was a rejection, right? Right? OMG, I don't know what to think.

It could be an R&R, so don't be wildly excited. Really excited is fine though.

Good luck, Kody!

Thank you, everyone! Oh, I'm so nervous!

I was just reading through this thread, and I started to feel nervous for you!

Let us know how it all goes!

When Joanna rejected my full, she didn't email to tell me she was going to be calling me. So I'd say things are looking very good for you BW. Congrats! Hope you manage to sleep tonight. Yea, as if!

So Blind Writer ... she called yesterday, right? How'd it go? Your fans are waiting!

Well, take a look at this.

Sent query 5/6
Partial Request 5/7
Full Request 5/7
OFFER OF REPRESENTATION 5/12

And i'm taking her up on the offer!! She loved the book, she was shocked no one else had offered to me yet, and when I told her I was interested in accepting, she goes,"Oh, good! I'm so excited!" Of course, my response was, "Uh, you're excited? I'm ecstatic!" She was very friendly and personable, and she was stunned to learn I'm seventeen, but she didn't have any problem with it.

She was ver nice, and her enthusiasm assures me that I'm making the right decision. I'm so happy!

YES! I am so thrilled! THE DUFF is awesome - I was rereading the first chapter the other day (resurrected by thread necromancers) and remembering how much I enjoyed it. You are a writer of twinkly awesome specialness, and I hope you're popping the champagne.

Wow, I've never been told I have "twinkly awesome specialness"!!!! That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me!!
Now, now, Para. You know I'm too young to pop the champaign. My mother has to cosign a contract for me, so I"d say champaign is mildly illegal.

Many thanks, Lily!!!

Awesome news BW! I'm so excited for you. Go have yourself an alcohol-free beer!

Ew, beer smells!! lol. Thank you Steph!!! Thanks all of you! I"m so happy!

Congrats Blind Writer!!! That's fantastic. Here's hoping you have a long relationship.

Congrats, BW.

Thank you!!!
