I've been sending out queries for a year now, and this is the first bite.

I'm not about to count my chickens just because someone is willing to look at my full manuscript, but this is still the furthest I've gotten. And it does renew my faith in the latest version of my letter.

I just wish Querytracker wasn't choosing this exact day to act up...

Congrats and good luck! Look on the bright side...maybe QueryTracker acting up is a sign you won't need to use it anymore.

Thanks.

But as I said, I'm not going to celebrate just yet.

You've been working your butt off for, like, forever. It's an accomplishment whatever comes of it. So celebrate.

Nevermind. The agent wound up passing.

Back to square zero.

Any glimmer of hope in this whole thing is just to soften my gut for another punch.

Awww....that's too bad. At least they didn't keep you hanging on for too long. Better luck with the next one!

I'm still waiting for someone to offer to do anything with my book, without charging me hundreds of dollars.
