This is especially helpful if you’re looking for feedback
before you reach the query stage (and heaven only knows we could all use a
little feedback then), so hop over to her blog
and give The Saturday Slash a look-see. You do need to be a follower to
participate, but I’m sure you’ll want to be one once you check out her site.
Next things next. I (finally) have another installment of “Interview
with an Agent” in the pipeline, and better yet, it’s going to be INTERACTIVE.
Hannah Bowman, the newest agent at Liza Dawson Associates, will be here this
Friday, October 28, to answer any questions you may have. Definitely plan on
checking in that day to catch Ms. Bowman’s responses to the usual questions--and
a bunch more.
Lastly, I’ve felt a little bad that I always ask you guys to
put your queries and first pages on the chopping block but never offer up my
own. (Not that I would ever enter one of my own contests, but still.) So in the
spirit of not cowering behind the chopping block any longer, I plan to post the
current drafts of Steve’s query and first page tomorrow morning, and I’d love
to hear your thoughts. If you have a minute, you might check those out as
well.
Well, I think that’s it. Anyone else know of any other exciting
goings-on around the blogosphere this week?
P.S. Don’t miss the winners Ms. Testerman picked from last
week’s round of “An Agent’s Inbox.” Did one of your favorites make the list?

Thanks, Krista! My query needs help, and even reading advice for another person's query can be helpful.
Super Awesome to have a hitching post query spot, for claw digging. I'm in.
One is always second guessing--triple guessing oneself.
I'd better hop on over. Thank you Krista for the last contest and for being there.
Thanks for the shout-out, Krista! Sharpening my claws and hatchet for next weekend's victim... er, participant as we speak.
Mindy's great...but so are you!!
Wow! Sounds like a great week of learning opportunities! Congratulations to all the October winners!
Myrna, if you send Mindy your query, let me know when she posts it so I can check it out!
Same comment to you, Karen. If you decide to submit your query, let me know when she posts it!
Yes, Mindy, participant, not victim. We wouldn't want to give anyone the wrong idea... ;)
Hey, thanks, Linda!
Yep, momslifeponderings, I'm especially excited to post Ms. Bowman's interview. It's been a while since we did one of these; a lot of my newer followers have probably never seen one of these interactive interviews.
Thanks for reminding me of Bigblackcat97's secret identity:) I love querytracker people, but sometimes I get a little confused about who is who. That's why I use my real name on there, I guess. I'd never make it in a life of crime, all those aliases!
I'm looking forward to the interactive interview- already have a question for Ms. Bowman. Thanks Krista!
Kelly, bigblackcat97 is a sneaky feline, but I think she likes to be. And I'm looking forward to that interactive interview, too:)
