Gosh darn it....I just realized that one of the two partial requests i got this week was from an Agent who appears on the Writers Beware list.  In fact - she's one of the Top 20 Worst Agents.   rant

OK, there's always a silver lining....right?  Right???   Yep, the other partial request came from my Number 1 pick.   So, as usual my life is operating on extremes.  Business as usual here.

In an attempt to ease the disappointment of my partials being cut in half, I'm going to focus on what/who i DO want.   OK, That's all now.

You're right Chelc.  Just feeling a bit tired and emo (...Thumbs Up) today so not able to shake the dissapointment as quickly as i'd like.

Still trying to shift my focus back to the request from my top agent.

Hey, can I ask what Chelc means? Also while i'm asking questions, what's the personal message function?  Does that send like an e-mail message to your profile or is it more of a chat thing where a private message pops up on the screen?

haha, sure! Chelc is how my friends and I short-hand spell my name: Chelsea. so exchange the 'sea' with a 'c'. Chelsea, Chelc. get it?  Grin
and personal messages (aka PM) are like emails.

HA!  Chelc usually gives us older folks brain hemorrhages (strokes).  Get your mind out of the gutter.  Not enough room for yours AND mine.

now, that's gratitude for ya - not only have I survived gratuitously applied strokes, snide remarks about my age, BUT i've been the champion for maligned youth on QT for months, suffering painfree slings and arrows, but and now..........i'm smited?!

no prob.  i like smiting - that was the best part of zombiedom!  smite away, chelc.  but remember...youth and beauty is no match for old age and deviousness.
