*breathing heavily*

I did it! I just now did it, and now I"m breathing hard and my palms are all sweaty, and I won't know if anything come from it for what will seem, I am sure, like at least one eternity, if not longer...

what am I talking about? no, it's not the usual raving you get from me...

I just submitted my precious baby, my manuscript, to three different agents...

night writer, crossing her fingers, toes, legs, arms, hair, eyes...hoping for a good response from just ONE!

Dear (night writer),

thanks so much for considering us. Although this sounds quite interesting, it is not what we are looking for at this very time.

Thanks so much for giving us the opportunity and good luck in your quest for publication.

Best,

(Agent #1)


Strike one off the list...two more to hear from...

Unfortunately, tha'ts the game. You're much more likely to get a lot of rejections before you get a bite. Don't take it personally. It happens to everyone!

Congratulations!!! And if you get ANY rejection letters back, just toss them and sent your manuscript out EXACTLY AS IS to three more publishers! :)
