Query Letters

I've read no less than six articles on writing query letters this morning, and fortunatly what I've written seems to fall into their recommendations.

Some helpful sites are:

Writer's Digest - http://writersdigest.com/

Agent Query - http://www.agentquery.com/

Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America - http://www.sfwa.org/

Some of these I found by looking at my favorite authors' websites, and to them I am greatful. This list is sure to grow as time goes on, so I'll add new blogs to update as well as add to the links page.  Well wishes to all of you out there in my shoes.

Finding an Agent

I'm waiting to hear from one agent now, but soon I hope to be waiting on others. I'm not a big wait type person, especially when I really want something. Yuck!!! Oh well, this will be worth the wait. Today I choose the three chapters I feel will grab an agent the most, and begin on more query letters. Cross your fingers for me and blow me a kiss of Pixie dust for luck.

Remember what they say about finding an agent.  Patience, patience, patience, and finally more patience.  I've heard the same thing about getting published.  The two main assests writers need are patience and persistence.
