so far

Six rejections so far, one of which was a request for a partial and then a rejection. But the rejections have been kind, and haven't been form letters. I'm still waiting to hear from a few more agents. There are also a few more I'm going to submit to, but they only take snail-mail submissions, so I need to put those together.
And in the meantime, trying to wrap up the freelance work I'm doing while I ponder what to write next!

The submitting is done, and I've edited one of the two shorts. And I've begun writing a short story. so that's a good start!
Happy weekend!

I did it

Well everyone, I did it. Last Friday I took the day off work, sat down at the computer at home, and electronically submitted my novel to twelve or so agents. My fingers are crossed that someone likes it!
I'll keep you posted as responses come in. The first one actually came this morning; a very polite rejection. Part of the process, right?
I'm excited that I finally did it! Now, what to write next . . .
