Query for Substance of Shadows sent out to agent two, Rachel Vater of Folio lit.

More reading aloud.

More agent research.

All in all, a good day. You know, I enjoy doing this. :)

Hiya -- a driveby Hello. I am still reading you everyday, but they took access to LJ away (at work) so either it's read in the evening time or not at all.

Anyways just wanted to tell you to keep plugging away because I think you have tons of talent, and I think I know what I am talking about! You will find someone who will want to publish you. And if I felt like my fledgling company could do just to your story, I would publish it myself. Alas, monetarily + exposurely, I am just not there yet. Ptooey. But all good things come in time -- my best-selling copmany-ness as well as your bestselling author-ness.

Thank you for saying such a good thing. I appreciate it, and I know too that you will get to where you wish to go, because you're a hard worker.

I don't know what the future will hold, but if I can, I'd like to do something with Cat Scratch, especially if I am in a position to be of use to you. :)

Thanks again for your encouragement. As for my career, I have not yet begun to fight.

the treat/ iwssuposed to be adressign the agentto whom you're sending the book. i meantto sa 'hee, soemoen's handign yo ua bait. take it!"
it's like thoe cupcakes in alice-in-wonderland that say eat me. i'd liek this to be one of htose books that yells 'read me' withotu anyone interfeering inthe blurb text and putting a famous author's name besides your to compare it with.adn none of that 'if ou like soandso you'll love this' business either. if you're scared that it wont' sell tha n stop insulting theauthor and don't sell it.

off to prepare forthe tomatoes and strange giggles. i am very obviouslnewer than new to this field and i' mjstu goign fro mthe good scens you're sending our wayt That make me WONDER WHY THE HACK PEOPLE ARE SKIPPING IT.
