A big welcome to new client Nicky Drayden. She let the cat out of the bag on her blog (now linked in my sidebar) earlier today. You can go here if you want to read about it.
For those who wonder about such things, her initial contact was a query letter, first five pages, and a synopsis for her completed novel.


That’s lovely! Congrats to the both of you!
Waitwaitwait… She got in by following your submission guidelines and doing quality work? I don’t get it. I mean, my interpretive dance DVD and sending you my story with each page stapled to a box of pizza was a MUCH cooler way to submit.
Man, it’s all who you know…
*smile* Congratulations to you both. Best of luck!
Congrats to you both! (Ooo, and short stories to sample, too!)
Congratulations to you both. Better get working on that synopsis I suppose
