The prospectus is in the mail, with sample chapter attached!
I ought to feel relieved, but instead I'm distracted: I want to snatch the manuscript out of the envelope and fiddle with it more, or expand the cover letter to explain all the reasons that the manuscript doesn't quite live up to my high expectations, or visualize the responses of editors who read it, which makes me hyperventilate.
Time to calm down: breathe in, breathe out... breathe in, breathe out. Relax, it's only a pile of words. What's the worst that could happen? Breathe in, breathe out...
Someone stop me before I run to the mailroom!
