When I first started this site I had no idea if it would work. I'm amazed at results.

I don't know where else I ever would have found people willing to help me query and listen to my ideas in turn. (Seriously. I don't know how this was DONE before the internet.) I linked over here from Nathan Bransford's blog way back when you started up, and while I've only recently become active (because I've only recently gotten anywhere near being ready to query), I've always loved the concept.Zee Lemkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152658255324664476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588509537601105804.post-79889913150609045442010-09-02T11:01:43.926-04:002010-09-02T11:01:43.926-04:00Anon- I got it, it's scheduled to post at noon...Anon- I got it, it's scheduled to post at noon EST today.Rick Daleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05173516899130463413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1588509537601105804.post-55618848382391999532010-09-02T10:56:13.314-04:002010-09-02T10:56:13.314-04:00I submitted my query yesterday but it's not sh...I submitted my query yesterday but it's not showing up?

When I know what I'm doing with this query business myself, I hope I'll be able to offer some advice to others. <br /><br />As one of your down under followers (how wrong does that sound!) I like the middle-of-the-night updates. Sleep is overrated! <br /><br />Thanks again for the site, it's brilliant. <br /><br />JenJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12314617048592538691noreply@blogger.com
