I totally agree with you, though. Querying is the perfect training ground. And although I hear a lot of complaints about how imperfect a system it is, I can't for the life of me think of a better one. I am proud to say that I think I've gotten much more patient as the process has worn on. I had about the same timeline as you and I think that I'm getting better at waiting--although just barely. <abbr><em>Chandler Craig’s last blog post..<a href="http://chandlermariecraig.wordpress.com/2009/05/17/saturdaysunday-six/" rel="nofollow">Saturday/Sunday Six</a></abbr></em> Wow, you were very zen through the querying process.

I love this look back of yours, Sarah. Because I'm in the same place you were last summer. I've queried every UK agent that takes e-submissions because I don't think there's much interest in my book over here. (See my blog from Yesterday). Let's hope in a few months, you can post from a successful after-sub POV and tell us what it's like in that longed-for chaotic nirvana of Pre-Publication. xxxx Ha!
