All right then there's the order of a birthday present. ALSO @Suicune's Fire WHAT TIME ZONE ARE YOU IN SO I KNOW WHEN MIDNIGHT IS HERE! YOU'RE LIKE 14 HOURS AHEAD OF ME RIGHT?

Yeah 8am here is 12am over there. A whole 16 hours difference between us.

I'LL BE UP FOR SURE! GOTTA BE AT THE MALL EARLY! So I'll have my phone and everything. Possibly a portable charge to charge my phone while I wait outside GameStop that day

What fir?

Well, I contacted five more literary agents today. Seriously, this process is SO MUCH like sending in resumes and it's just as boring and tiring reading the submission requirements and tailoring each query letter and submission sample accordingly. Some of them seem like a really good match and I'm crossing my fingers, but others are kind of an iffy gamble. We'll see. If it works out, awesomesauce! If not, hey, I get better at paper cranes. Win/win either way.

I still have a LONG list of other agents that can be contacted, so it's not like I'm running out of leads. If I run out of agents for New York City, I just move over to looking for ones in Philly instead. I'd drive all the way over there if it means an agent deal.

So I can be there when GameStop opens to buy that Pikachu New 3DS XL! I MUST HAVE IT! >u<

@Neo Emolga awesome to hear, Neo! Still crossing my fingers and hoping the best for you! Hopefully you come across the right one soon enough. As you said, if not, more paper cranes to display later and look back on. New York, while you'd think would be the best, may not because of the competition. If this round doesn't work out. I'd say give a few in Philly a try just to see how it turns out. If it turns out the same, move the attempts back to New York. Worth a shot really.

That Pikachu 3DS does look really cute and cool. If I didn't have a 3DS already, I'd definitely get one too.

And thanks! The main thing is just to not give up even if dozens of rejection letters flood in. Really, I love this story, I've worked really hard on it, and it makes me chuckle every time I reread it. I have faith and hope in it and I know there are people out there that would get a kick out of it. So yeah, even if everything in New York City doesn't work out, there's other places including Philly. My sister lives near Charlotte and heck, I could try to get representation there too. If they want to meet with me in person, hey, I could visit my sister also and I'm sure she'd be thrilled about the reason for me coming down there (she badly wants me to move in with her in the first place).

[Noblejanobii]

Well I got rejected from another sorority!

Hmmmm....actually....I'll see what I can do if you'd like me to. My mom helps a writer edit her books. She texts her and meets with her daily. If you'd like me to I can see if she can contact her and ask if whoever it is supporting her could take a look at yours. Hey, it's all about knowing someone right? This may be that opportunity if it works out. PM me or VM me if you want about it.

That sucks, Noble. Don't worry I'm sure you'll find the one soon. If you're ever venturous about it. Buy a wiretap or something. Start doing some sleuthing! XD. Find out why it keeps happening. Or we can go all agent style and buy ear pieces and I can walk you through the trial xD.....unless it's all written based.

[Noblejanobii]

@Chakramaster I wish I could find out. They take up a vow of silence afterwards though so they can't discuss it. Maybe I'm too cerebral. Who knows. Well I have one more shot next week otherwise I'm out until either next school year or just out permanently. It's generally frowned upon for you to rush as a non-freshman but while it's slightly acceptable to do so as a sophomore, after that it's not okay.

EDIT: And now on top of this my dad might be in danger of losing his job thanks to NAFTA's renegotiation.
