I'd gladly take a rejection

So tonight I get to send out round ten of the dreaded agency query letters. Maybe it's round eleven. I've lost count. I usually don't send out my next round until I've received the rejections of the last round, but I've waited long enough. I don't know what has happened, but I haven't even received rejections this time around. And they were even from agencies that guaranteed a response regardless of their views. To be honest, I don't mind the rejections so much. It's the waiting that drives me crazy. Will they, won't they? The question can only be answered by the agency you query. I check my e-mail every day in high hopes of seeing that next email with the subject line beginning with the glorious RE:. I love the RE:. It means that someone responded. Negative or positve. The RE: response sends happy joy-joy feelings throughout my system leaving me with a temporary fifteen second high on life. Oh sure. When the RE: is a rejection, it still kind of sucks. But one day my RE: will come that will leave me sending a RE: back to them along with my manuscript in tow. For now, I just can't stand the wait. I'd gladly take a rejection over the silence any day of the week.
