The Waiting Game

Well I continue to wait and hope that some agent will think The Peacock's Tale is a viable piece that can be presented to editors for publication. The waiting is getting to me. In my head I know these poor agents receive hundreds of queries, I just can only hope my colorful peacock hits a chord with one of them.

In the meantime I am reading and reading and reading all sorts of things. I find that I do like getting new books on my Kindle and am even thinking about e-book publication which may be the route for me. But for now I am still hanging in there with more queries. I currently have 9 viable queries still out there. This weekend I may gather up some further possibilities and see about putting out some further queries. I really have nothing to lose at this point so why not?

Looking For More Agents to Query

I think I have sent out a total of ten queries and have had 5 rejections, however the  time limit for actual responses are slowly running out. Some say wait six weeks and others say 8. So I am gathering up a second round of agents to query -- some are new agents and others are ones I skipped over last time because I didn't have a long synopsis, but I have done that now, so I can go back and try another round of agents!

I certainly have plenty of options still so I will keep up the process for awhile and see what happens. Wish me luck! The Peacock still lives!
