Hey guys!!
I'm new here but I've heard a lot about these forums from other writers. Apparently you're lifesavers?
I'm in a need of a life saving hahah. So as the ages-old story goes, after 3 years of writing and 1 year of workshopping I finished my novel, wrote a query letter, and sent it to 10 well-researched agents. I think my query letter is good. I did get feedback from seasoned writers as well as random peeps online. I sent out first batch on June 6 and the second batch on June 28. I heard back from only one agent who requested a full MS.
I know it takes a while for them to take a look at it, but still. Should I be concerned? Should I try to follow up? (especially the first batch?) I'm also thinking if it wasn't a mistake to query in the summer. Everything is slower in the summer, right? Am I overthinking this? Should I just go and meditate?
HELP FRIENDS!!!
