So I woke up this morning, checked my email, and discovered that an agent has requested a partial manuscript.

Perhaps that doesn't sound like much to some people. I suspect those people have never tried to procure an agent.

There's clearly no guarantee that this will amount to anything, however I couldn't help but feel excited. Couldn't shake the slightly giddy feeling all day.

A long way yet from having representation, but it's the first step.

We shall see, friends. We shall see.
