I think this is such an excellent idea. Wishing everyone who participates much success.

We were away and without internet for three days. I missed the party. I hope it was a huge success, Diane. Pitching to agents is difficult. Looking forward to hearing some success stories.
Wow. Apparently missed that entirely.
