A Good Day!

For the first time in a long time, I had a good Monday!

First, my entry on Miss Snark's First Victim was chosen by the Secret Agent! I won third place, which isn't too bad out of 51 entries. I get to send my first chapter to Sarah Davies. Very exciting.

Second, Archetype published my articles on How to Write a Query Letter on her website. She blogs about them here, and you can go directly to them by clicking here. That's exciting for me too. Someone actually thinks what I have to say is important? Very cool. Oh, and by the way, I posted a comment thanking Archetype, and my verification word was punwar. No, I am not kidding. Just, yanno, getting ready for tomorrow's contest...

Elana, I'm so looking forward to hearing you've found an agent after this! :-)

I'm not surprised you placed. You are such a talent, Elana.

And just so you know, I can no longer look at the captcha word without making a sentence in my head.

It is SONIZE of Elana to plant in my brain this compulsive disorder whereby I have to make sentences out of non-words every time I leave a comment on a blog with comment moderation. Gah!

I screwed up typing in the word,"sonize," so it gave me another one for your pleasure, Elana.

Did you know that a bologna sandwich made on hogie bread is a HOLOGI?

You will never live this down, Elana. As long as I suffer, so will you! Mwa ha ha.
