I've been trying to draft a blog post today but I have a major deadline at work so I haven't gotten very far on it. I will probably post details on Monday and just write an announcement today to give myself time to write it properly! I'll link here when it's up.
Congratulations to you!!!! Sarah is wonderful and I am very thankful to have her on my side!
Woo Hoo for you, agent-mate : )

Just read this 5 minutes after sending my query. Guess I know I'm getting rejected. But I have harpies! I doubt they'll save me.

Just queried Ms. Clark... is it really a holiday on monday? Got an auto response that said the office would be closed. I've never heard of places being closed on January 17th.
It's the Birthday of Martin Luther King Jr., a Federal holiday in the US.
