Sent out a Query!

Today I sent out my first four query letters. I’m sure they were horrible, but I guess the point is that I did it. Advising websites say that it takes anywhere from 4-6 weeks for responses to occur, if at all. And it’s very much one of those, “if we don’t call you, don’t call us.” Tomorrow, I’ll bring some envelopes to work and mail off three more.

I figure next week, (or later today if I’m bored enough) I’ll do some more research, find some more agents, rework my query letters and send out some more stuff. I’ve heard of authors being rejected 100+ times before finding success. I figure I’ll give it about that much time. In the mean time, I’ll keep honing my novel, plus I’ll keep working on new projects. If this novel doesn’t go anywhere, then I’ll just keep writing until I find something that does.

Wish me luck!
