Oh, come on! I’ve sent you lots of queries. The least you can do is send me rejections! I’m mad for your rejections! It makes me feel like this whole process is going forward!

Of course, agents, if any of you want to send me a request for a partial or a full reading, or would like to offer representation, well that’s forward movement too.

Um…that said, I’m not sure if I’ll have time to do submissions next week. I have a 3 day work week and a paper deadline looming large. I will try. Much will depend on this weekend’s progress.

With last night’s progress, however, things look rosier.

5,486 / 7,500 (73.1%)

I’ve lowered the word count, now that I have a fairly good idea how long this sucker’s going to be. Of course, this weekend will be organizing, and converting real names to pseudonyms, which is something we do in qualitative research. Then, I get to sprinkle liberally with case study examples.

Right now I should write some grammar tests, so I bid you farewell for the moment. Have a great weekend.

Cheers to agents' requests for full or partials *ha*, too cute! Hopefully they're considering, so that's what you do get.

Hope you get all your work and tests done, and you have a great weekend, too.
