Momentum

One query on the 7th, one on the 10th. Six today, and several hard copy prospects lined up on my spreadsheet. Being less than halfway though the Writer's Market, I should end up with a healthy list of submissions once it is complete.

It seems, once started, familiarity breeds confidence, as with so many things. Like job hunting, you start wondering how well that first query comes off - but so it goes. The first try isn't one I expect to get me the best result, and in any case this is just the query stage anyway. After query comes sharing the actual manusript, then hopefully signing a representation contract, THEN it's time to sell to actual publishers.

Yeep.

Like so much else in my life: the waiting game.
