I call this my SNEAK ATTACK.

Another couple of lobs, this time out in the land of publishers and agents...New York, New York. I was running short of time and I happened across an entry interested in publishing children's adventure books...AND I don't have to have agent representation to send them stuff. So, with crossed fingers I hit them with the one-two-combo. You see, they said that right now they're accepting queries only and prefer to get them by e-mail. For laughs, I sent an e-mailed query to one editor and a mailed query, complete with reply card to another. Where did I send this magic to? Why...

Simon & Schuster Books For Young Readers

For those keeping track at home, I believe this marks two weeks of submissions, meaning I've got about 10 items out there. Some are queries, some are chunks o' manuscript, others and e-mails.

So far, I've heard nothing back. Then again...it's early yet...
