Go go Meredith!

Be sure to tell us how it goes!!
Posted by Meredith (Member # 8368) on :
Very interesting day. I'll save a more complete run down for tomorrow.
But part of this conference was a critique of the first ten pages plus a one page synopsis. Each agent would choose one writer from those they critiqued to talk to individually.
MAGE STORM got picked!
After our talk, I was invited to make a few revisions an submit the full!

On a side note, I didn't know there was such a thing as Agents Day

I didn't either until Meredith started to talk about it. But evidently it's just in one location.
And before I forget Congrats Meredith... Niice.
Hope, it goes to the next stage and the one after that---until we see it on a bookstore shelf. But when it does do you realize what you did to yourself??? I mean you're going to have to sign a book for each one of us. And the number of us keeps growing even if a couple dropped off.

There's what like 4000 people on the forums... Thats a lot of books to give away haha

In the interest of efficiency. I'm just going to post a link to my blog entry about yesterday, about who spoke and the topics covered.
I'll have my fingers crossed for you! I really admire how you work at your books, hope it all works out.

Congratulations Meredith! I hope this turns out to be one of those uber success stories

Fantastic Meredith -- you are well-deserving.
There is another lesson to be learned here -- this opportunity came because you ventured out to a venue such as this and met with people. I wonder if the agent would have been as interested if he/she had received a query letter at random.
