Today, I made a pro-rate sale to one of the much-coveted ezines on my January goals list!
(Paperwork pending, details to follow.)
Today, I accepted representation from a literary agent of the jaw-dropping stellar variety!
(Edits pending, backbreaking revisions to follow.)
But let’s back up—agent! Representation! Sitting around on the couch, looking totally dumbfounded!
Tonight D said, very solemnly, “You’re in the process of arriving.”
Brenna Yovanoff 
That is AWESOME!!!! Happy arrival! Congratulations!
Thanks! And thanks for always dropping by to boost morale. You’ve been around to watch me flail at this pretty much from the beginning :D
Brava!
Thanks! I do feel compelled to mention that I actually started the short with the full intention of sending it over to you guys, but no matter how I hacked it up, it kept coming in about 700 words too long, which might as well have been a bazillion.
I think all this noveling has gotten me in the habit of epic! stories!
So wait, you sold a story AND now have an agent? We MUST celebrate!!! (I’m just going to warn you now that I’ll probably weep the day I hold your first published novel in my hands. The kind of weeping women do at weddings and births of babies :)
Is that weird or what? It’s the post-apocalyptic military sci-fi zombie story you and J helped with, so I think some group revelry is definitely in order :D
OMG OMG OMG ZOMG!!!!!!!
I wish we lived in the same city so I could bring you champagne!!!!
I know–I feel like we should be dancing around the living room or something. However, I have good faith that we will address the champagne situation at Christmas.
Holy Crap!
That’s awesome!
Congratulations, you’ve worked hard as hell.
Thank you! And thanks for always, from the very beginning, being a bolstering force.
A dark, twisted, slightly disquieting bolstering force . . .
Thats great! Congratulations. The jaw-dropping stellar variety! Can’t wait for more news.
Thanks! And I can’t wait to be able to talk about it ;)
Whoo Hoo! Agent!!! Fantastic and congratulations ;)
Thanks! Return congratulations on your release yesterday! You’ve had a ton of exciting stuff going on recently :D
Thanks back at you *g*
Congratulations! Like seriously dude, congratulations.
Thank you–and that icon so made me smile!
If I was the lead singer of The Hives, I’d be that happy all the time.
WOW! Awesome! Congrats!!! :D
Thank you :D I’m sure this will all start to sink in any minute now . . .
Wow, not just one great thing, but two! *throws confetti* Congrats!
Thanks! It’s funny, all summer was like waiting . . . waiting . . . waiting . . . readysetNOW!
Woo hoo! Congratulations times two! What an exciting day for you. =)
Thank you :D
So you lock the entry so fewer people can read about your great news? You’re so silly!
But besides that…CONGRATS!
Hahaha–I guess this makes me totally superstitious, right? I want to talk about it, but I don’t want to jinx it, so until the proper paperwork is filed, etc., I’ve resorted to making a grand, sweeping announcement that’s both cryptic and selective :D
Congrats!!
Thanks! :D
*eyes so wide they almost pop out*
I’m so proud of you, I can barely say it! HOORAY!
*grabs Brenna and dances with her*
I’ll tell you all about it and we’ll have an absolute dance-party :D Virtually, it’s true, but still–dance-party!
I knew this was going to happen and CONGRATS.
You, with your fancy beta-reader feeback and your sensible advice. You know I wouldn’t be right here right now without you guys <3
And I’m sure that in a month or so, I’ll be begging you and Tess to look over it yet again ;)
Wow, you’re starting to sound like me when I got MY good news.
Holy congratulations, Batman!
And you smeared your good luck on me via your f-list. Thanks ;)
Don’t you know that luck is just that much more lucky if you smear it around? :D
So, I saw your comment on Maggie’s journal last night and without warning, everything clicked and I realized, “hey, that’s the guy who was so freaking cool during the FFF hook contest last year!”
Upshot: I friended you about a year late.
Congrats on the agent! *cheers* So happy for you…
Thank you! :D
