Last week, I started sending query letters for my science fiction novel Tesseract. It's an interplanetary tale focusing on four female characters and I couldn't be more proud of it.
Before I sent the first letter, I decided I would send at least two hundred queries for this novel if that's what it takes to get it published through traditional means. I'm after bookstores and awards with this book. Something deep inside me is determined to get this book in front of as many people as possible.
As of now, I've sent four letters. I've already received one rejection from that quartet.
4/200
I'm just getting started. Anyone have any advice or know of a good place to look into?

The first rejection is the hardest! Hopefully it won't take 200 queries...
