I received 2 query rejections within 15 minutes of each other. Then my friend's mom told me she finished reading the project I'm querying and really enjoyed it. I'm going to focus on the positive feedback.

Spent the afternoon working on my new story idea. Really think I have the first chapter down. Now I have to figure out if there's a second chapter rattling around my brain...

I love watching football in the snow! We're getting the Bills game in Maine today and it's snowing in Buffalo...

Finally finished writing the first chapter of the idea that's been haunting my thoughts for the past month. I guess I'm working on my next novel...

I broke up a fight today between two pigeons squabbling over a piece of bread. I just found out I've been awarded the first ever Maine Animal Lovers Peace Prize.

I sent a query letter to FIFA and they immediately sent back a full request! FIFA really can make a seemingly impossible dream come true 🤣

Discovered a few new agents accepting queries on QueryTracker so I sent them queries. Then I worked on my new story idea. Now I'm reading my latest find from the library. It is truly a day for the written word.
