Queries and Cool Season Crops

Spring                                                           Bee Hiving Moon

Got Missing queries sent off to 7 agents who represent young adult novels.  I’ll pick up the other three next week and establish a new list of fantasy submissions.  Feels good to have it sent off, routine.  Book buying by publishers, agent’s choices for what they represent, even what the public chooses to read are all highly subjective decisions.  That’s why multiple submissions over a period of time represents the only way of making sure you’ve give a work a fair shot.

The cold season crops will go in the ground this afternoon after the nap.  The weekend and next week looks either cold or wet, so today is the best shot.  Beets and carrots, that’s our cool weather crops, but I’ll plant a lot of each.  We love both beets and carrots.  I spent some time this morning checking planting and nitrogen requirements.  I still have to lay down nitrogen since I left that out of the broadcast last fall.
