There is a Horizon!

Well, I have a synopsis, I have a query letter. All I’m waiting for now is a few more pieces of feedback to incorporate into the story and Tort & Retort can go off for consideration to the first epublisher I’ve targeted.

I’m excited and terrified, both.

Luckily, since it’s a 4-6 week response time, I will burn out on the “Check Email Every 2.5 Seconds” game after a few days and life will go back to normal.

Back to working on Raven’s White Hart – since I have an editor appointment to pitch it, it woudl be a very good idea if it’s at least at the rough draft complete done before Nationals. I was bummed to not get an agent appointment but oh well.

Wild ride, I tell you.

  1. I would suggest, in addition to targeting epublishers, that you send out query letters to agents and publishers in a normal fashion. using sites like

    and

    can be a great help. there are many avenues for short fiction, many more then people realize.

    anyway, good luck with the queries … keep busy writing while the glaciers melt

    all the best,

  2. Good luck with the submission!!! Fingers and toes crossed!
