Online Author Chat Recap
The chat with Rhonda Stapleton went well last night. She was a natural and the chat guests were great. Thank you to everyone who joined us and especially to Rhonda for taking the time to tell us her inspiring story and to answer all our questions. Good luck on your book tour!
It’s encouraging to hear a story of someone who made it. After querying over a hundred agents with one manuscript, she moved on to her next work, landed an agent, but still didn’t sell. Her third novel, however, has made up for it. It’s become a trilogy with an awesome book deal with Simon Pulse. She’s gonna make it! Plus, her incredible query letter hooked five agents at one time! Five! I know! That means she got to interview the interested agents and pick the one that best suited her career goals. How incredible is that? It’s uplifting to hear of someone else’s success.
Last night my husband cooked supper, I mean, ordered Chinese food and here’s what my fortune cookie said, “Your dream will come true when you least expect it.” Kind of fitting, isn’t it?
Don’t forget to join AQ’s online chat with Tina Wexler, literary agent for ICM this Thursday, 7pm Eastern.
