The Waiting Game...

Ever since I was a child I've been terrible at waiting. So why on earth did I decide to try to get into an industry that is 95% about waiting?!

I sent off the first three chapters of my manuscript to Agent A at the beginning of October and was amazed to get a response three days later asking for the full novel. I sent it off straight away and got confirmation that it had arrived the following week (that was the week of the postal strikes and I live in the back of beyond so it wasn't a surprise that it took so long to make it there). I then got an email from the agent herself a couple of days after that saying that she was reading it that week.

And then...I waited. And waited. And waited. And waited.

And then I waited some more.

It's been four weeks now and I'm not sure if the silence from the agent is a good thing; does it mean that she is considering it and talking to other people about it? Or has she already turned me down and the letter just hasn't got here yet?

Only time will tell. And until then I guess I'll just...wait.
