Another One Down!

Received rejection from Kristen Nelson of the Nelson Agency. That's 3. Two requests for partial.

Next up: Maya Rock of Writer's House. Maya is very well affiliated, even if she's not in AAR yet. However, most of the agents she works with are, and I'm convinced it's a matter of time for her.

More about Maya here:

Just gotta keep going! It stings, and I can sure see why people quit. Rejection is no fun as a lifestyle, is it? :D

so there with freelancing. Sometimes you want to scream and yell "I'm worthy"

PS--Why don't you try small publishing houses where you can submit directly to the editor?

This is a little embarrassing, because I sure don't know if you've already checked this blogging agent out, but he has a wonderful blog, if you'd care to see?

I don't know anything about agents, but this young man is very funny and smart, and just, you know, nice to read. It might be an inspiration, too, but you may have already...well, I don't know, but I thought I'd mention him, just in case, you know how you do :) [profile] nathanbransford, but if he's not your interest or whatever, ummm, it's not like we're mutual friends or anything, but I thought I'd share him, though you may already know about him :D
