"Dear [Penguin Queen]


"Thank you so much for sending samples of your work for our consideration. I very much enjoyed reading them, and would like to see the whole typescript.

"I look forward to receiving it shortly."

:hooray:

I'm doing things backwards: I have had stuff published by small presses & a couple of journals, and Ive even got a publisher for my first book (a small press) (the book will be pubilshed this summer), but I hadnt managed the agent thing yet. I have a crime novel which I am hoping might actually earn me some money, and now a real live agent has bitten! Well, nibbled, at least. :snoopy:

Wish me luck.........................

Congrats! You got a nibble and didn't even have to put peanut butter behind your ear :)

Penguin Queen!
You know what I mean.
Pen-guinnnnnnn Queeeeeeeeen!
You know what I mean.

She was down at the South Pole,
Around McMurdo Station Way,
Penguin Queen,
She taught us everything:

"While the rest of those hacks,
Were collecting reject's,
I sent in my submissions,
Now I'm selling mine!"

Pennnnnguinnnnnn Queeeeeeeeen!
You know what I mean.
