How I (finally) Got My Agent

July 24, 2018July 30, 2018 / jennwrightwrites / Leave a comment

I never thought I'd be able to write one of these posts. Four years, three manuscripts, hundreds of rejections...and today I can finally announce to the world that I am now represented by Natalie Grazian of Martin Literary Management. The road to this moment was long and twisty and not as much fun as I … Continue reading How I (finally) Got My Agent

Livin’ On A Prayer

May 8, 2018May 8, 2018 / jennwrightwrites / Leave a comment

Well, I've done it. I've officially put another manuscript baby out into the world by submitting my first batch of queries.

Yesterday, in the span of one hour, I received a full request and a form rejection. Same query. Same sample pages. Different agents. If that's not a lesson in just how subjective this business really is, then I don't know what is. Two different agents can read the exact same thing at darn-near the exact … Continue reading You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling

I Like Everything…But No

July 28, 2017July 31, 2017 / jennwrightwrites / Leave a comment

Rejection day. More than that. A TWO rejection day. One was a query I'd all but closed since I sent it all the way back in April and had no response. That one hurt a little. The other was a rejection on a full manuscript request. That one hurt like hell. It's not the first … Continue reading I Like Everything…But No
