Query update!

We're going to quit reading queries on 12/24!

You're welcome to send queries but you won't hear back from us between 12/24 and 1/3/11.

  4. OK, I have to ask. If you are not going to read queries, what are you going to do on 12/25? Or for that matter at 11:55P on 12/31?

  5. You're starving the query shark for Christmas?!

    At least feed it lots of wrapping paper, the poor thing.

  6. [sarcasm]Damn it. Just as I was sure I'd finally finish my book that week and be prepared to send out a query. Now I have to wait an extra ten days.[/sarcasm]

    Seriously, have a very wonderful Christmas and New Years. May your stocking be filled to overflowing with wonderful words, perspicacious prose, sublime sentences, and alluring alliteration... Everything, I'm quite sure, a literary agent wants from Santa.

  9. Have a very Merry Christmas, or as they say in New York, "Jesus Christ. Don't eat those. They tell the tourists they're chestnuts. It doesn't even look like a chestnut. It looks like some sad damn empanada. Look, the boss got four Dean & DeLuca's this year, and she'll never miss one. You like Rugelach? Rugelach. Roo. Guh. It's like a cinnamon roll. No. It's not Italian. How about Blondies and Brownies. You can have the Blondies. It's like a brownie, but it's. Why do you care? You were about get a bag of chestnuts that look like someting out of Survivor."

    Be good, toothsome.

Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.

If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.


Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.

If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
