Query update:

After submitting to 9 different agents in the UK and US on the 4th, I:

Got 2 rejections on the fifth, less than 24 hours after submission. More exciting and terrifying than disappointing, as most of what people say gives me the impression querying agents is not a 24-hour-timetable activity. I understand why I'd be rejected and can't really find the energy or stubbornness to take it personally!

But -- Now, I've had a request for a partial manuscript and a synopsis! Just the first step and it could still be a rejection later - but duuuuuuuuude. Too excited to type properly right now and it's awesome.

Ooh! Fantastic news about the request for manuscript and synopsis. :D

(PS I typed "fangtastic" first. Does your story have vampires and/or werewolves in it, by any chance?)
