ReplyDeleteCongrats to all. There were so many good ones this time around. For those of you who didn't win- keep querying.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners!
ReplyDeleteIt was really helpful to read the advice from the very generous agent this month and also I saw Jodi Meadows doing crits as well!!! So much to think about and digest in their comments.
I sat this one out as I am back to the old drawing board with my submissions, but it was still a very useful experience to read the subs and crits. Thanks again to Miss Snark!

That would be Miss Snark's First Victim -- Authoress!!!
