Just curious. I use querytracker to track which agents I've sent submissions to.
I've got my current book out at 18, with 8 rejections already (one personalised).
Had a look at the data for a book I queried two years ago, and I only did 26 for that one in total before giving up, despite getting three full requests! Looking at it now, it's pretty good, so why did I give up so easily? I'm half-tempted to query it again, but not at the same time as the current one obviously.
Or is 26 a 'lot'?
I know some of you will have found an agent pretty quickly, but I'm wondering if there's anyone out there where persistence was key?
