Amazing feedback Lindsay!! You worked hard for that, best of luck as you return to the trenches!

How interesting. So it's just generally getting harder to get a full request now, no matter who you're querying. It makes me wonder if that's because agents are getting more selective or if the pool of queries is widening without improving in quality? Any theories?

Wait, does this mean as a whole, QueryTracker's request rate is down to 4.3%, or is that your personal stat? Like, are agents overall requesting less than they used to?

That's sounds so cool! Sounds like you're keeping really busy these days. Wait so is the writing challenge like a new NaNoWriMo but not NaNoWriMo kind of thing?

Thanks! I'm hoping to finish it by next week. 🤞 What stage are you in these days? Got any new WIPs in the works?

Saaaame. I feel like I'm steamrolling through this draft, all the while muttering under my breath, "I'll fix it later" like it's an incantation.

Nooooo! I'm sorry Sage, that sucks :(

Depending on the state you live in, you can get library cards in every county, too! It has done much damage to my Libby holds queue.

6k??? You're on a roll! That's amazing, way to go!

You're so kind, thank you! I don't really have anything to share right now, but I'd be interested in swapping in the future!

Boy do I feel this today.

Asking for comp titles and then having a separate question asking on what shelf at a bookstore this MS would fit on. It feels a little redundant, unless there's something I'm missing?

Gah, the atmosphere!! I am here for ittt
