Do I get a prize for this? I think this sets a record.
Schiavone Literary Agency accepts e-mailed queries, so I sent an e-mailed query this afternoon. They rejected it with a form response in (and I counted) 1 hour and 6 minutes! It was a long shot, and I didn't really expect them to be interested, but this short a response time amazed me so much that I laughed. :rollin (<-- me laughing)
In the good news/bad news segment, a top agent rejected my requested partial :cry but wants to see a partial for a future project!
She likes my writing but just not that particular book, I guess.
Problem is, I don't know what to send her! I have other outlines and even partial manuscripts, in fantasy (which is what I'd sent her), sf, mystery, and nonfiction. Any of these could be picked up and worked on until complete in a reasonable amount of time.
But which one? :head
