UPDATE: PLEASE FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE AFTER YOU SIGN UP. Have you ever wondered what agents were dying to find in their inbox/slush pile? There have been many times I entered a contest and not even received a comment, not even from one of the agents. Or maybe the agent was kind enough to leave a comment that simply said, "Sorry, this just isn't what I'm looking for, but I love the premise and your voice." I always walk away feeling unsatisfied.

ReplyDeleteME TOO! Thanks!

ReplyDeleteYou're so right, Julie! Without them, I probably would have quit a long time ago!
DeleteThen again, if I don't have the right key, I start knocking on windows... *insert HUGE grinning emoticon*
ReplyDeleteWay to go Shauna! That's the spirit:)
DeleteOr there's the old adage about opening a window. But if this is an attempt to enter, I guess the police won't like that.
ReplyDeleteI guess that all depends on who's on the other side of the window. It just might be someone who's been expecting you!
DeleteThat's right--just keep knocking on those doors!! Eventually someone has to answer, right?
ReplyDeleteKnock, knock! Just keep knocking...and knocking:)
DeleteOhhhhh... I like this... a very comforting thought! I need to tell myself this EVERY DAY!!!!! :-D
ReplyDeleteThanks Morgan! I know, I do too! That's why I posted on my blog, so I would always be reminded of it!
DeleteI definitely needed to read this today. Thanks.
