Ok, I know there are a million threads about wait times- I've spread my angst in several of them! I was just hoping to check in with wiser minds than mine and see if anyone finds my situation strange at all.
I sent out some queries some time ago. I was thrilled to receive three immediate requests for partials. I sent the pages to all three agents within a day of the requests.
The first went out (3 chapters, email) on August 22. I received a kind reply August 27 confirming that it was received. The second went out (3 chapters, email) September 6. The third went out (100 pages, snail mail) September 11. All were sent as each agent requested. All are to emerging or newer agents in large, well known (busy) agencies.
I guess since I'm at about 6 to 4 weeks for all 3 of them without any word at all, I'm starting to develop a complex. Chill? Polite inquiry ensuring all were received? Did they call the FBI because they've found hidden subtext I was unaware my subconscious was spewing? Does my title translate into somthing horribly offensive when held up to a mirror?
Am I still in the "take a pill, you're fine" time frame?
Damn, this waiting is soul sucking.
