I’m not feeling dejected (although I was rejected). I just need to let off a little steam.
I queried an agency on Book A and got a pass with an invite to submit in the future. Cool. I query about Book B. Couple weeks later I get a letter requesting material from Book A. I figure, hey, cool. Then it occurs to me that maybe they typed the wrong title, and meant to request from Book B.
So I email requesting clarification. The agent who signed the letter (but who didn’t pass on Book A) writes back saying it sounds like an office mix up. He doesn’t indicate yea or nay on Book B.
When they go look for the SASE to reject me on Book B, they won’t find it because they used it accidentally for Book A. Then *I’ll* be the one looking like a putz.
I have half a mind to mail them an SASE with a polite note indicating they can use it for Book B. Or would that make me seem like a control freak wiener? What would you guys do?
Okay, thanks, I feel much better now.
