*scream of joy*

I just got a request for the first thirty pages of my novel from an agent. They said my project sounded "intriguing". That's right, intriguing.

Aww man, I needed this so badly it's not funny. Even if it ends in a "sorry, not right for me" in my inbox, it's nice to know that I'm still in the running. That agents are still reading and even taking on clients still. Hope is not completely futile. Only, like, 98% futile. There's still a 2% chance that things won't end badly!

This brings the Query Score Card up to:

Rejections: 6

Requests: 1 (WAHOOOO!!!!!)

Timed Out: 1

Still Pending: 10


Excuse me, I have to go fire my query out of a canon and onto an agent's desk and then find some celebratory chocolate because HELLS YES THIS CALLS FOR SOME COCOA-Y GOODNESS.

HOLY WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

That is awesome and thrilling and too cool. I'm so happy for you. Also on an all about me note, it makes me hopeful for myself because it's like having someone you know win the lottery - it's just that much closer to real.

GOOD LUCK!!!

I am SO HAPPY!!!! I will have a piece of cocoa-y goodness in my part of the world to join in on the celebrations. There are so many things working below the surface or behind the scene in our favor. These kinds of surprises are always great! :o) And you still have 10 pending!! :o)
