I actually did legit run around and scream, with my hands in the air. It really is a vote of confidence. It says, at the very least, "You can write, no matter what."

I really need to thank you, hugely, for all the help you gave me on this ms. And I hope to return to "Normal" (pun more or less intended) after my state boards. I'm really sorry I lost track. Seriously, someone will pick up "Normal" because it's awesome. Someone will pick up "Qualia" too, if not this time, then down the road. One of my favorite songs says, "It's not a matter of luck, it's just a matter of time." ^_^

I will certainly post the query letter! I'll put it in a locked post. :D
