CARYN WISEMAN
has offered to represent me!
*cue sun beams shining down from the heavens and warblers singing*
She read ICE DOGS, and said she loved it! I really can't believe it -
MY DREAM AGENT!
The phone call from Caryn took the shock out of turning forty last week. (as in what the... I'm FORTY? How did that happen?) and I couldn't ask for a better way to celebrate!
 |
| celebrating with Mr. Crabby is a good way to not feel forty. |
I'm just VIBRATING with joy to be able to share this news with all my blogging friends. I may even post a vlog in the near future involving an attempt to do a celebratory roll in my kayak.
Cold querying DOES work. Yes, you too can get discovered in the slush. If I can, so can you!

Congrats! Andrea Brown Literary is such a great agency. I'm SO excited for you.
I already threw around a bunch of exclamation points on the Blueboards, but I can continue the party over here. Hooray!
Congrats, Terry! :)
Congrats! Read your news on the Blueboards. Here's to quick revisions and a lot of sales!
Congrats, Terry! What a fabulous way to celebrate a milestone birthday! (and the 40s are fabulous I'm finding so far--because its a decade when we discover our inner strength and how to use it).
Congratulations, TerryLynn. It's great to have someone on your side in the sometimes confusing world of publishing. Love your pictures and all the dogtalk.
This is such awesome news, Terry! Congratulations on being agented!!!!
And happy belated birthday! I'm SO there for the brownies...you might be on your own with the skinny dipping thing, though. :>
I just popped over from Paul's blog from his post about the good news.
Congratulations! The Andrea Brown Agency sounds wonderful- I've read nothing but glowing things about all the agents there.
Yahoo!
Whoo hoo!!! :D Happy dancing for you over here!
Congrats again! As another new 40er, I'd say Crabby dancing and kayak roll attempts sound like an awesome way to celebrate! (I'll also second your advice on the slush pile - worked for me.)
Major congrats! Just heard the great news from Paul Greci.
Thank you for sharing and keeping the wheel of positive energy spinning for all of us.
Terry, this is great news! Congratulations!
I figured your big news was something along these lines. Congratulations!! An agent for your birthday? How cool is that?
AHH!! How did we miss this fantabulous post! CONGRATULATIONS! We are so freaking excited for you. AB is THE agency for us kidlit folks. Can't wait for more exciting announcements from you!
Congrats! Awesome agency!!!
that is wonderful news, Terry! Hey, I had a birthday yesterday, wish I had just turned 40. You've got a ways to go before you catch up with me. Congratulations!
Congratulations - I'm so happy for you! Andrea Brown Lit is a wonderful agency! I hope you make a sale real soon! And, happy belated birthday - 40's looking pretty good from where I'm sitting :-)
Congratulations! I am so excited for you!!! And happy birthday, too! Forty's not so bad, especially with great news like this!
Congratulations, Terry!!!!!
And happy belated birthday!!
Love the hat. Love it.
You're forty...? No way.
Also, that two weeks of not telling anyone about your news was difficult since we share so many friends! But I can repay the favor when I have good news I'll make sure you're one of the first to know but cannot tell anyone. Ha!
CONGRATULATIONS, TERRY!!
So excited for you and I've heard wonderful things about Caryn!
That's wonderful news!!
That just goes to show you, you don't need any tricks or need to know anyone. You just need to write well and have a great story. :)
CONGRATS!
(And happy birthday) :)
Thrilling!!!!! Fantastic agency. So happy for you and wishing you a quick sale too. Happy Birthday!
I am soooo late with this, but CONGRATULATIONS!!! How incredibly exciting and wonderful! Oh, and happy birthday, too! Love the Mr. Crabby hat and hilarious that doggie doesn't (snicker, snicker). I'm so happy for you! I'm off to find a crabby hat and bake brownies so we can celebrate in your honor here. ; )
That's amazing!! Congrats! Can't wait to read your book. :)
Congrats!! So excited for you :D
And welcome to 40. It's not too bad ;P
I am so happy for you
Dear Terry,
That is SPECTACULAR news!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!
I'm a little behind, but WOW and congrats, Andrea Brown is on my list of dream agencies.
Fabulous for you, congratulations! This makes me believe it is truly possible for me, too, one day!
Blessings & a bit o' sunshine!
