Still no rejection letters since my Meg Thompson submission. And, I submitted to two people last week to make up for missing my goal the prior week. But, no clue who I’m pitching to this week. It’s on my to-do list for tomorrow and I’m going to try and track down another agent who worked on a book I reeeeeally enjoyed.
Last year my top five books were:
- Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver
- Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin
- the Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst
- Weyward by Emelia Hart
- Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett
None of these are technically in my category but you never know. The agent for The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue (Fav book of 2023) led me to someone in their agency who would be a perfect match.
Just have to “dig a little deeper, Ross.” (Who knows that reference, haha).
It would feel ridiculous to post this without acknowledging it’s St. Patrick’s Day. Did you know this holiday got its boozey reputation when us Americans started to celebrate the holiday? It’s a religious holiday Ireland has observed for the last 1,000 years. Here’s a little origins article I found by the History Channel.
I won’t be drinking. But I will get dressed up in green and enjoy some bangers & mash for dinner.
Have a great week, friends. I hope something good happens to you this week.
Byeee.
