I did actually accomplish my goal of getting Through Shadowed Stone ready to go out the door. And…I sent queries to five agents last week. Not a lot, mind you, but it’s a start. I was terrified, of course, but it was time to push the baby out of the nest. So the agent search has begun. Hopefully I will have some luck, but if not, at least I know that I finally reached the point in my writing where I’m confident enough in my work to send it out into the world.
