I just sent off three queries to three agents, and I sincerely hope that one of them likes the cut of my jib. Not one of these people has given a turn-around time on their page or any indication at all that they'll get back to me about my shit.
Get the hard stuff out of the way first, and the rest will be easy.
BUT I still have six months of waiting on my calendar, so that's guaranteed to suck.
And I also have an anxiety spike, so I'm essentially awake and undrowsy for at least a few hours. And that should be enough to ferry Mayhem off to work for a day to make up for the Australia Day holiday, next week.
I'm still going to need way too much caffeine, though. I do NOT travel well.
I have a software update this morning, Mayhem to organise, and I should probably give myself some caffeine anyway, because I've been awake since 3AM.
Yes, folks. I spent three hours braving myself up to send three emails. And doing revision homework about my potential agents. I have that cloud behind my eyes that makes thought a little slow and blinks a little long. Not good for a long-arse round trip to firkin BANYO.
Through ROAD WORKS.
During PEAK HOUR TRAFFIC.
Yeah. I'm grumpy about this. I'm grumpy about having to do it tomorrow, too. And I'm way grumpy that Beloved up and decided that I am on my own in this shit. Hoo fucking ray for me.
On the plus side, some of my fanficcery over on AO3 has gained a lot of comments. Primarily - Final Pam jokes. Just read Nesting Instinct and you'll see it.
And now...
I have an hour and a quarter to do my morning shit. I need all the luck.
