I’ve subscribed to the YouTube channel for Britian’s Got Talent thanks to this.

My friends list today has been taken up by query letters!

I follow the feed for Nathan Bransford’s blog (nathanagent), and today he’s running the Be an Agent for a Day contest. Fifty queries will be posted today, right now it’s up to #38, and readers have one week to respond to all of them, and they can request no more than five manuscripts.

Among the fifty queries are three that resulted in published books. The contest participants have to try and include those three in the manuscripts they request.

It will be interesting to see how well the readers do. (I’m just following along, not playing.) Now, I have to go catch up; the last query I had a chance to read was #9.

‘What would you have me do, Charles? I’ve heard these arguments before.’

‘That was a long time ago. Mankind has evolved since then.’

‘Yes, into us.’”
