Agent Crit Giveaway

Listening to: Switchfoot, "More Than Fine"

Attention writer friends: In researching agents to query, I discovered that Caren Johnson is giving away a free 3-chapter or 30-page and synopsis critique. Details here, toward the bottom of the post. Genre and subject don't matter--she'll critique it even if she doesn't rep it. Winner picked randomly and announced January 31.

An agent critique would be wonderful and nerve-wracking. I entered, because my nerves can always use some wracking--and my work can always use some, well...work.

Serendipity

I know I just posted about ten seconds ago, but I had to mention this...

The contest I mentioned in this entry a few days ago? The creator and one of the judges (same person, not two separate entities, to clarify) happened to find my blog via NaNo, and of course the most recent entry was the one mentioning her contest! She mentioned the discovery in her own blog, which I'm going to peruse more thoroughly later, but I like what I see so far. And come on, she created an awesome contest, so...obviously she's cool. I don't normally put smilies in blog posts, but I can't help myself now =).

Life is truly so funny sometimes. I'm going to go shake my head and marvel at the silliness of it all. Then I'm going to start on my entry for the contest, because as she said in her comment to my blog post, it's obviously meant to be!
