So, I entered the Write On Con pitch contest, but accidentally edited my title in right before posting my pitch!! I turn into such an idiot after the last bell rings! Yargh!
The agent I've been in contact with has now asked whether I'd like to discuss parts of my WIP with her over the phone! Um, yes yes yes! I'm undone by how supportive she's being - if this is how she treats her non-clients, I can't imagine how wonderful she is with her actual clients! I also hope talking to her will help me figure out some of the kinks in my story, such as... well, the entire world-building scheme...

Hello all!
Wanted to stop by and say hello. Seeing as I haven't been a teen for a couple of years, I now fit into the "old people" category! =]
But I just wanted to say hi to everybody!
What do you guys have planned for this weekend? I am going to continue outlining, and will take a break at some point to check out this artisan ice cream place nearby. I was reading about the flavors and I'm drooling. I also got invited to a YA book swap at a library, I will probably stop by.

I should get over 50K on my first draft this weekend. I have to interview a cop first, just to make sure these scenes are going down realistically.
I already know I need to make some changes. If I follow Hemingway's method, I should reread the entire manuscript and fix those seams. Debating doing that or powering through to the end and save it for revisions.
We found 40 or so in our garage last summer, Jess. Spiders freak out my husband, so I had to do most of the dirty work. Even I thought it was pretty creepy and I don't mind spiders, but I'd prefer a Black Widow to a Brown Recluse any day. At least the Widows stay away from people!

Good luck. Crossing my fingers for you!So. Tomorrow I enter the scary world of agent querying, a realm I've not yet entered!
That is awesome!I think the universe is listening to me Last night I got another partial request
That's great. Sound like an awesome agent. Good luck with the call!The agent I've been in contact with has now asked whether I'd like to discuss parts of my WIP with her over the phone!

Holy crap! I entered the Write On Con Pitch Contest on a lark after a bit of inspiration improved my pitch. I expected a nobody to be assigned to me, but now Mollie Glick, of Foundry Media will be advising me on it. That doesn't mean I have an official agent yet, but it'll definitely help and could lead to more good things!
