Another new query went out yesterday, freshly tweaked and completely revised. The approach was changed, the focus of the synopsis altered, and I ran it up the flag to see who would salute.
Sadly, Stephany Evans isn't resonating with the premise. And it didn't take her long to realize it, considering the fact that her rejection arrived first thing this morning.
As for Jessica Faust, she found the story intriguing, but not enough to want to read a single page of the manuscript.
Two speedy rejections out of six queries does not look promising.
The tweak is not tweaking in the right direction. The new query doesn't seem to be working.
Months of letting it rest, of clearing the mind and starting fresh, haven't panned out.
Back to square one. Back to reading even more jacket flap copy in search of the preferred and accepted way of presenting a story idea.
