So far, the new agent hunt has yielded only one response, a form letter, and a number of no-replies that just passed into the time frame of "take silence as rejection".

This is a super hard gig. Writing is only the start. Hustling/networking is everything. Time to get back to submitting more stories, after this editing gig and slated book review.
