HOORAY!!! Well done!

[Jack Getze]

Way to go, M! That lady is a shark, but you made her weak at the knees. Awesome. I will keep my fingers crossed while she reads your full manuscript! Break a leg!

[I. J. Parker]

Excellent!  Minerva, you're doing a great job.  Good luck with NINE DAYS.

[Jonathan Francesco]

That's awesome! Much luck to you! :D

[Richard Krauss]

Great work and thanks for highlighting your successful query!

[minervaK]

Thanks, everyone. Now I'm shaking in my boots, wondering what she'll say about the MS. Hope she won't be too sharky!

[Benjamin Sobieck]

Fantastic! Congratulations.

I'd be curious to know what this reviewer's rules for good queries are beyond it hooking her. Some of the guidelines I've seen might disagree with her view of good. I'd be curious to know whose methods results in more acceptances.

You have to read the archives on her site. It's not difficult, she's funny as hell. I do have the same query out to another prospect, and you can bet your ass I'll totally be on here screaming again if it gets another positive response.

[Jonathan Francesco]

I've looked over some. Still trying to get a feel for what she's looking for beyond the interesting though. I've just read some pretty strict rules about what makes a good query that she doesn't seem to follow as strictly. So I'm curious to see the differing perspectives.

Cool!
