the ongoing saga of query

[rhienelleth]

Fastest query turnaround yet: 3 days, rejection.

Their response time is listed as 8-10 weeks, so 3 days is really fast.

*sigh* Okay, so that brings the totals to:

Queries sent: 9

Rejections received: 4

Partials requested: 1

Waiting to hear from: 4 + the partial


Our holiday potluck at work today has left me wanting to curl up on or under my desk and take a nap. Instead I shall scour the internet for more agents to query. See? This writing life is so glamorous. (I'm using the word glamorous as an excuse to use my newly obtained Chuck/Blair icon. It's the small things that make one smile in the face of rejection.)

Two words - Nano burnout.

I never even thought of that. Wait - hordes of people 'finish' a 50K word novel in thirty days, and then immediately start querying it?

*boggles*
