It's been awhile...

Since I posted here. So here goes. I needed to bury my head in the sand after what happened to me, but now I am feeling good and want to get back in the swing on QT. I'm an original dinosaur..one of the first forum members back in '07. Patrick and the people on here have been very good to me!
After a full year of being sort of "pen pals" I signed with a major agent in Sept. 08. Then the economy tanked and things went downhill with my agent and me. We parted ways this past March (amicably). She even wrote my new query letter. But it was a downer for sure.
Well, I am just starting to query again now and here are the results:
I sent a query to an agent who had my ms when I first signed with my former agent. He wants the new one. Then three moer queries sent since yesterday. One I heard back from in tne minutes asking for a full! Woot!
So that makes a total of 2 fulls from 4 sent. I'm getting ready to send out a few more right now.
Just wanted to share.

Sounds like you're back in the saddle, justwrite!
Glad you're back...even though I never knew you left.

Thanks again, E and to you others who don't know me. As always, E, I highly approve of your profile pic, though I am still seething about the finale!
Are you still waiting on your news?

Yay! It's so nice to have you back again! I agree with Elana, you'll be agented in no time!

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face,and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, may no spiders fall on your head.
