Query Stats - 6/20/15

Well, got another rejection for GEARS. Kinda stinks. But the fact that it took nearly 2x as long as the agent said it would to get back to me was pretty indicative of lack of enthusiasm. So back to the drawing board. Three agents had GEARS. Now only two. Hopefully one of them will bite and think I'm abso-fab. Fingers crossed, my peeps!

#SFFPit Results - 6/19

So #SFFPit was yesterday! So excited because I got 2 faves, one for each project! Sent in EIDOLON this morning and I'm sending in GEARS tonight. Cross your fingers and wish me luck! So nervous for this! These two ladies seem really cool. EIDOLON went with the first 10 pages, GEARS will be with a partial of 50 pages (if I can get stupid AOL to work, ugh). So nervous!

GEARS Pitch: Dybbuks. Cucuy. Golems. Cinderella w/ male Sleeping Beauty. Judeo-Spanish folklore. A kidnapped sister. Stolen memories.

EIDOLON Pitch:  The Red Death, a Ripper-esque killer, hunts the young aristo vigilantes of the Raven Society in the city of Nevermore.

#PitMad Results - 6/4

So I got 3 favorites, 2 of them from the same agent! She favorited pitches for both EIDOLON and GEARS! Another agent favorited my GEARS pitch. I'm super excited. What's funny is the first lady previously favorited an EIDOLON pitch during #KidPit, which was last week. She really wants me. :D

EIDOLON 1: Re-imagined Poe: House of Usher rules a Victorian kingdom of magical beings & the Red Death is a Ripper-esque serial killer.

EIDOLON 2: 17yo Janine must stop a killer targeting the members of her vigilante team. Criminal Minds+Black Jewels+Batman.

GEARS: Nightmare world based on Spanish legends & Jewish mythology. Girl must rescue kidnapped sister from monsters.

OTHER GEARS: Juliet must fight for her sister, love for a rebel leader, her life, and her right to choose. Steampunk fantasy.

Already sent in my EIDOLON submission to the first lady and my GEARS submission to the second lady. Cross your fingers, my peeps!

Query Stats - 5/8

Here are my stats regarding my GEARS submissions so far.

One agent has the full; I queried with 3 chaps on 4/27, she requested a full yesterday, I sent it today. Really nervous about this! She seems like a nice lady.

Another agent has a 50 page partial and I'm waiting for her to respond. She said 4-6 weeks, and that was 5 weeks ago...

I queried two other agents and haven't heard anything. Hopefully this all works out for me!
