I. Forgot. A. Query. Letter.
*hits self on forehead*
Don't worry though, readers, I shall resend, claiming my mistake (thx megan) and then apologize. And send into like 50 other agents.
But there's actually one publisher that might actually look at my unsolicited manuscript. And that publisher is? Well, you may have heard of Razorbill. They publish half of my favorite books.
1) Audrey, Wait
2) 13 Reasons Why
Well, if you email them a query letter, an outline/synopsis and 3 sample chapters, they'll respond in APPROXIMATELY 8 WEEKS. That's really not that bad. Some other publishers take like 15 weeks. How long does it take to scan through a manuscript? I mean, really, 15 weeks? It takes me about 2 days to read a book and I read slow. Ask anyone.

Ha ha. Rachael thinks she reads slowly. Silly.
ReplyDeleteWell, they need to do a careful critique of it.
ReplyDeleteAnd, think fo how many they get. It's like when you turn in an essay, the teacher has a bunch of essays to read and grade. And they get that many every day.
