Often use interesting reviews to track new authors - your book sounded great - sophisticated, fun and a heroine to match the hero. (a woman who's lived and with secrets too!) Love the victorian period. So much change. Can't wait to read it. Am keen for a consultation too if still time to add to the hat, or mix.emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02751016605771758064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32397002.post-7223453996003729172008-03-22T20:22:00.000-05:002008-03-22T20:22:00.000-05:00I'm interested in the query consult.

I will warn you, however, that in 99% of cases obsession will set in, followed by days of non-stop reading. Rereading will commence for an unknown period of time - each case differs - and then withdrawal sets in. Your mood will oscillate between irritability, anxiety, depression, and anger until the next book is released.<BR/><BR/>I, too, would love to enter the query pool, especially since my book has just undergone revisions that necessitate a new query letter. <BR/><BR/>Also, like Tracy, I queried KN with a letter basically written off of the example on her website and received a form rejection in under 24 hours. Of course, that same query generated numerous requests for partials and fulls, so maybe it was the story she didn't like...<BR/><BR/>Now hie thee to a bookstore and prepare to fall in love with one James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser!Sara Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074758242842709562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32397002.post-43558441379074179292008-03-22T07:55:00.000-05:002008-03-22T07:55:00.000-05:00Anon,Jamie Fraser is the hero of Outlander (Cross ...Anon,<BR/><BR/>Jamie Fraser is the hero of Outlander (Cross Stitch in UK) by Diana Gabaldon.<BR/><BR/>I haven't read the book myself--my agent is telling me too.
