Today marks the day that I received my first manuscript request ever. I queried Ms. Rebeca Seitz about my dystopian Christian project and within a half hour she requested to see more. I know that I have a terribly long ways to go before publication, but I'm deeming this an open door and thanking God for it.
Ms. Seitz is the owner of Glass Roads Media Management which deals with Christian projects. She just very recently moved to Naples, Florida to open a new office location so she said that it may be several weeks before she will get back to me, but that can be expected. I'm patient. I have school in a few weeks that I will focus on so I may forget about the fact that I sent my project to her, but most likely it will be in the back of my head simmering.
I'm excited. I will live on the high for the next few days before settling back down and reminding myself that there is still much to be done before anything solid happens. Of course, this is a nice first step. I don't want to get prideful or cocky. That kills too many people's careers. However, I do hope any writer who happens across my lonesome blog that I keep neglecting gets to feel satisfaction for their writing career one day.
I'm just glad someone likes my project idea. That's satisfactory enough for me right now. If more is to come, God will hold the door open.
