It's the reason we send out 100 query letters in hopes of getting that ONE agent to sign us and why that agent pitches to a 100 editors to get it sold to the ONE publisher. Publishing is a tough biz. Worth it, but tough. Subjectivity makes it tough because there's nothing we could've done better or different.<br /><br />It's like 'he's just not that into you' regarding a guy you like. Kimberly G.
