Arrrggghhh
A few months ago I had sent a version of Arista Doyle to several agents. Didn’t hear anything again and forgot about it. Now these past few days when I eagerly open my gmail every morning to see if any Mentors have reached out to me, no thought of earlier submissions exists in my head. This morning I saw an email with the words Arista Doyle in it and my heart rate jumped. Was this a mentor asking for more pages? Trembling finger pushed on the link. Nope. Not a mentor reaching out. An agent. And not even an agent, his assistant which is why I didn’t recognise the name. He passed.
I understand he doesn’t want it. But could the timing be any worse?? Tenter hooks are terrible things to be hanging by.
