About a
month ago I sent out my last round of query letters. This was before I had
resigned myself to the self-publishing route and might even have been the cause
of it. I never thought I would get anything back but the usual collection of
rejection letters. As usual, things didn’t
go as I had planned.
When I got
home from work the other day I found a surprise in my email inbox. One of
the agents I had sent my query letter to, along with the first three chapters
of my novel, had replied requesting my full manuscript.
I have had
agents request chapters based on my query letter before, but none have ever
requested the full manuscript based on my chapters. As you can imagine I’m
quite ecstatic. I polished up my synopsis (which she requested as well) and
sent it and my manuscript back in an attachment.
Now I have
three people reading my novel. I can’t wait to hear back from one of them.
