Wow. Life-as-close-to-being-an-agent-as-I'd-ever-want-it!
Here's the update: All 50 entrants for the adult portion have received their responses. (Rejections and acceptances both. So if you're in this crowd and haven't heard, please check your spam box. I PROMISE I sent 50 emails yesterday.)
Jodi and I are still working through the MG/YA entries. We're 75% finished. I'll send responses as soon as I can.
Also, I feel awful because one of you sent me a link to a AMAZING collection of information on all 13 of our agents, and I forgot to post it before submissions opened. And now I can't find the email.
Yes, it's been a little overwhelming. I'm so sorry for missing that.
But yes, this is fun! The excitement alone propels me forward each day. Like a non-Christmas Christmas.
I'm even receiving NICE RESPONSES to my rejection emails. Words of THANKS. Does it get any classier than this?
Yep, I'm loving this. Thanks for your patience. And enthusiasm!
ETA: Thanks to Merieka for providing the link to Catherine Misener's AWESOME AGENT LIST. And THANK YOU, Catherine!
Wow, I can't believe how fast you and Jodi are going through the pile. Can't wait to read the awesome entries. :D
ReplyDeleteSo exciting! :D
ReplyDeleteAlso, this list? http://justwritecat.wordpress.com/2010/11/12/miss-snarks-bakers-dozen-auction/
Wow, that's fast! Amazing. Thanks so much to both of you!
ReplyDeleteImpressive speed at which you and Jodi are working! Thanks so much for all the time and heart you put into your blog.
ReplyDeleteOh, Marieke! YES!! Thank you so much!!!!
ReplyDeleteYay!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the work you and Jodi are putting into this (and the agents of course). Also, it is great that the posts won't go up in November. With NaNo still going I wouldn't have the time to read all the exciting excerpts and loglines. I am sooo looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to those who made it in and thank you Authoress and Jodi for all of your hard work!
ReplyDeleteNo matter my personal acceptance or rejection, I'm so thankful to have discovered this community. Authoress, you're simply awesome. Many thanks to you and Jodi for your hard work.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! Best of luck to everyone in the auction!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to all who made it! I'm looking forward to seeing the posted submissions.
ReplyDeleteI have not received any mail of rejection. Or i failed to adhere to the guidelines and received an outright rejection? thanks
ReplyDeleteSudam, were you one of the 50 who made it into the adult slush pile? If so, I did send all 50 acceptances and rejections by hand. Tell me your email address and I'll double check.
ReplyDeleteAlso check your spam box.
