Yes, I’ve gotten four. I just have to keep reminding myself that that’s all right. Every book isn’t for everyone. If you don’t like fantasy, you probably don’t want to read my book. If you do…well, then I hope you’ll love it. And I have to admit, I wish I could get someone to read my whole book and then tell me they don’t want it.
Which leads to what’s worrying me lately…that my query is good, but something is missing. I write fantasy. Fantasy has certain themes. Mine isn’t an exception. Soooooo, I’m worried that my query is great at giving a synopsis about what the story is about…BUT it doesn’t adequately convey why mine is different, unique, worth reading. I’m going to think on it some more before I send out anything else.
