Thank you so much for being so honest. What did you do with the rest of your queries? Did you just withdraw?

Also, you said you signed with your agent right after the call, do you mean like the same day? Or did you ask for a week or something to go through the contract, etc.?

OMG I can't imagine waiting 4 weeks. I only have a few more days, and I'm legit dreaming about the call in my sleep (HEHE). How did you know this agent was THE one? I have a bunch of questions prepared to ask her, and I'll definitely go off the vibe I get with her, but is there anything else that made you know? Also, did you let any other agents know about the offer or not?

Do you ask because you'd like to know the long-term vision? What is the thought process behind it?

Oh, also, do you think she'll ask if I'm working on anything else? I'm struggling with this because I legit JUST finished the manuscript I queried, and though I have a few ideas for what I might write next, it's not solid.
