New Agent Blog

Last night revisions went so well that I am feeling ridiculously optimistic today.  I got goosebumps reading over my old stuff twice, and I didn't want to put it down. Now, I need to finish up and hand the story to someone else to see if it will have the same effect on readers.  :)

Kathleen Ortiz just started a blog and is holding a Query Contest to help her gain a following.  But let me clarify. You don't have to enter a query to win.  The prize is a query critique, and she has promised to bust out a red pen and give the winner feedback.  The real treat here (for me) is the opportunity to read another agent's blog. I'm already following.

  2. P.S. I put that you referred me. I think you get +3 points for that--you might want to let her know.

  4. Yay for the goosebumps and not wanting to put it down! I love it when that happens. Congratulations, and I wish you all the best when you share it with other.

  5. I got the goosebumps effect on Monday. Then I read the same thing on Tuesday - no goosebumps. Yes, the title "Query Contest" was a little misleading. But my query would much rather be evaluated than try and win anything right now.

  6. Beta readers? Did I hear a call for beta readers...? *raises hand obnoxiously* Ooh, ooh, ooh, pick me, pick me! :)

  7. Thanks, Sarah!

    And thanks for posting about the Query Contest, Jessie.

    Krista, you just made me laugh out loud. I'm supposed to be writing quietly while the clothes dry. I guess I'd better go do that. I will pick you. :)
