I'm a romance writer with publishing credits that go back twenty years to my college days. I also have a novel out right now with ravenousromance.com, with a four book deal. I just wanted to comment that I agree and support everything you wrote regarding query help. Even though I can write a fairly decent query, I don't like doing it and I'm not good at it. I write about 2-3 thousand words a day, but it would take me a week to write a 200 word query. And, the really strange thing is that I didn't even land my agent with a query. She approached me when I least expected it and we just started working together. The writing (for me) is easy, but the process is very complicated. Hi, Courtney.

I know enough HTML to be dangerous, but not enough graphic design skills to really do anything "cool" or "good"--it's just enough to get by. My site is workmanlike and not much more...but maybe someday! Congrats again and good luck in your master plan for world domination! (I, for one, think I could find a world dominated by CM perfectly acceptable) I think the new site is fabulously lovely and I’m envious of your skills to be able to do it all yourself.

I found you via Lisa Shearin & Kristen Nelson when they were blogging about your query letter. I'm looking forward to your book's release later this year because of it - the whole premise sounds intriguing and original! I also wanted to say that your updated website (I never saw the old version) looks super-cute! Your webdesigning skills are amazing! :) Happy writing! cecilia Hello, Ms. Milan!
