So, after months of just assuming that they didn't even bother, I got a response from the Andrea Brown Literary Agency regarding Saving Sabrina. It was a rejection. But my heart still jumped with joy and I really feel (finally) like I am on the right track artistically. When I first began researching agents, Ms. Laughran was the first that really made me think, "I would love to work with this woman." Honestly, by the end of the dreaded 2008 I was beginning to question my writing ability (although I would hardly say I have been sweating over queries and the rest) But to get this kind of personalized response from her was just very uplifting for me. I can say now that my fears that no one will take me seriously have been squashed and I am more enthusiastic about 2009 than I was before.
Alright, now I am rambling. :)

( The best rejection letter yet! )

In other news, I am finished with the foundation of book 2. No, I have not finished writing it, but I now know where Sabrina and Riley will be traveling and the wonders they will encounter on their adventure. Hopefully I will get the third book outlined soon and I can get to the meat and potatoes of book 2. B is finally reading my finished 2nd revision of the first book and will hopefully help me write the summary. I am eager to clear my mind of the jumbled rumblings of Sabrina and her pals.

Anyway, just wanted to share my JOY!!! I hope whomever I get to represent me will make me feel as awesome about me as Jennifer did rejecting me.
