My first Query letter was sent out!

Last Sunday I finally scrapped together a few hours to write a personalized query letter to the agent I met at the Writer-in-Residence meeting. Waiting is the hard part, but I am somewhat patient because I know this is a process that requires skill and hard work, not just luck. I also joined the site querytracker.com which was daunting, because I read some success stories that revealed the writers sent HUNDREDS of query letters before landing an agent! Yes, that was me screaming. Sending 175 queries would take me years (that was one writer's experience.) Suddenly I don't feel so patient...
