So I started querying agents a few days ago about my book that has to do with healing unconscious unhealthy relationship patterns.
I queried maybe 20 agents? Not totally sure.
I think my query is pretty solid. Very specific.
And funny enough, right away I started hearing back from agents.
No’s.
This makes me laugh. Each time I receive a rejection.
Why?
I’m not quite sure.
The last query I sent out about my other book, I had to wait a bit but then heard back from some agents that they wanted to see my proposal and sample chapters.
Here I’m hearing back from agents and it seems like a lot of them telling me no.
What I keep hearing and thinking is that it just brings me closer to the right one.
I’m doing my proposal for this book today. Getting it ready.
Spirit has told me for a few days this is next on my “to do” list.
So I’m working on it today. But I’m almost done and it’s not even 12PM and I don’t feel like working the rest of the day. So I’m not going to. I teach tonight. That will be good. I’ve been really looking forward to it — more than I normally do, this is interesting and kind of funny to me too. I wonder what’s in store 🙂
So I also ask Spirit, should I send out more queries? Should I change something?
And the answer to both of those is no. Hang tight. Get my proposal ready. Clean up my editing on my chapters. Be ready.
Someone said this to me the other day and it’s so true… I’m waiting for the next wave (which I’ll rephrase.. ) I’m waiting for the big wave to come in. I’m getting ready to ride it.
Hell yea. That’s totally my vibe these days.
IN THE FLOW
