I have a couple of Small Things to celebrate this week.
- I finished writing a manuscript ! Yay!
- I had an agent ask if she could use my query in a workshop she’s presenting. At first I thought she’d use it as a “here’s what to avoid” sample. But no, she said it was almost perfect. Huh? I said no to her using it, of course. Just kidding.
- I’m away for a few days–beautiful Tassajara beckons. A wonderful, and maybe not so small thing to celebrate. I’ll be late in visiting blogs, but I’ll do that when I return. Here’s where I headed.

Yay Lee!
Well done on completing your manuscript. Nothing more fun than having yourself queried in a workshop. What purdy pictures, Lee. Seems a lovely break away and hopefully an escape from the pesky paparazzi.
Is this a blog hop? One moment please….Argggghhhhhh!!!! Sorry about that. I'm okay now. Well not okay as such. I like to think of myself as delightfully eccentric.
Have a gosh darn fun time away.
Your starstruck fan,
Gary!

To have your query used as a sample of what works is a compliment. I'm having mine crunched over at Matt MacNish's spot. Hoping to see what I can do to make it agent-appealing.
