I've just read on Editorial Ass that you got an agent! I'm just starting out on this writing thing, been rejected 19 times and counting in my quest for representation, so it's good to hear that it CAN happen! :) Congrats!

CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS, CONGRATULATIONS!

It couldn't happen to a more deserving person! Think how proud of you your kids are going to be! And think how sick your troll is going to be - the best form of revenge is success, after all.

I'm sure Da Man is delighted, too.

Isn't Bill Contardi the same agent that signed Cindy? If so, he nailed a deal in next to no time for Cindy, and I'm sure he'll do the same for you.

That's cheered me up no end. :)
