I don't even know what my blogger profile is! I do already have an agent for my historical crime thriller - a very patient one, as it's still not finished! <br />Please kick my butt off this site and tell me to get back to writing it :-)Kallihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11272078032578217903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-52535810272766862272015-02-09T18:12:41.803-05:002015-02-09T18:12:41.803-05:00@Kalli: Congrats on getting a mention your first t...@Kalli: Congrats on getting a mention your first time around! That's almost as good as a win. Well, okay, maybe not, but it's certainly something to be proud of. Buy yourself a book and call it a win. :) TIP: Make sure you have blog/contact/social media info in your blogger profile. Not only does it give us a chance to see what else you've been writing, but QOTKU herself has been known to visit blogs. :)Colin Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292997431935215499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17040756.post-81471759606893040412015-02-09T15:12:41.370-05:002015-02-09T15:12:41.370-05:00Yay!

I didn't know if anyone would get the references to work out who it was about, but I had a feeling the Shark swam in the wine dark sea of classical literature.
