8:00 a.m. You're raring to go. You check and re-check your query letter.
8:30 a.m. You look over your list of agents to query and choose one. You double-check their guidelines and press send. You feel pretty darn good about yourself. You are confident she'll love it.
Want to see the rest? Please head over to the Guide To Literary Agents blog, where I have a a guest column (*fist pumps the air*) and show me some love?
Oh, and one more thing? HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

I love what happens at 8:00 am the following day and I love the picture of you! Well done and good luck!
Nice. Heading over now.
So that's what you look like, Christine. Great post. Boy, you have a amazing respond rate compared to when I last queried. I received a rejection yesterday for a query sent 6 months ago. I'd already stopped querying the novel to do some major rewrites, so the rejection was funny more than anything.
Good luck with your submissions.
Love is headed your way!!!! Woohoo for the guest post!
Yay for a guest post! Heading over now. :)
Done! Loved that post!!!
Thanks. I'm going over there. Query days...ah that's what made me look so old! Ha
Happy weekend.

Just came back. Loved it! Great post :)
I hope you have a wonderful weekend too!
Loved the post... and thanks for sharing your photo! I've had both kinds of successes, fast and slow responses and a contract on my door step within two days! They also wanted a pile of money... But, ultimately, the night does come and you can stop refreshing your emails to take time off to sleep... come visit when you can...

Oh with the TEASER, it's not fair! Fine. I go. But not because you TOLD me to, because I WANT to.
Just got back from reading the post. Great job.:)
I remember those mornings, and the many websites and guidelines. Have a great weekend.

Woohoo! Love it!
Loved your post - so true!
Well Christina, it took me allll day to get there, but I did it! In my defense I had a big family gathering of 20 people in my home! And the house is still standing! Woot.
I can't wait to see what the agent says! I am very excited for you. I don't know if I will ever finish a book let alone query one! You are my idol!
Loved your guest post, and very excited for you. Good luck with your querying!!
