O Frabjous Day! Callooh! Callay!

It's a good day here in Averyland.

The agent wants to see a longer partial of Spires of Beltresa, and it sounds like she anticipates asking for the full eventually. Quite reasonably, she's not quite ready to commit to reading all 900+ pages until she's seen a little more. Who wouldn't be daunted by the bulk of the Big Book? I certainly would be.

The editor of a magazine I thought I'd never hear back from has asked for a revision to the short story that got me started on Traitor of Imlen, and he wants to see anything else I might have. Well, now I know what I'm bringing to the writing group meeting on Sunday.

Okay, the key's in the ignition, and the engine sounds like it's turning over. Maybe this time I'll get the car to move.

Mmm, Monster Like Big Books

I am completely undaunted by your book and its word count. I am sure it weighs less than my toddler. As a voracious and slightly obsessive reader I have been know to devour books of over 1000 pages in less than a week--and that was in middle school. So bring it on. I'll even write comments in the margins. But congrads in getting a professional interested.
