- Called a client to tell her we got an offer
- Negotiated that offer
- Called another editor to say we were accepting an offer I negotiated last week
- Called an author to offer representation
- Signed that author
- Read a client’s manuscript and sent revisions
- Read a client’s proposal and sent revisions
- Submitted a new project
- Posted three or four new covers on our Web site
- Celebrated it all with chocolate chip cookies and a glass (or two) of wine
And that’s why I love my job.

Now, that's a great week, Jessica. Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteAnd isn't wine and cookies the best pairing ever? After brownies and single-malt, that is ;)
Sounds like a great week!
ReplyDeleteChocolate and dark beer go well together, too.
Cookies and wine! I'd never have thought of that.
ReplyDeleteLove a great week.
ReplyDeleteJust had a chocolate chip cookie myself. My mother-in-law is known for her chocolate chip cookies. And she just brought a batch over a few days ago.
Luckily I've got kids to help me there. And neighbors. (She makes them by the dozens). Yum!
Anyway, hope you have another great week next week. :)
Wine and cookies? Really? Hmm. Interesting.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a great week.
Sounds like an awesome week. And I hope you have an awesome weekend, too.
ReplyDeleteWhat did you do in your "spare" time she says smiling - that was a lot of work there.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, what a great week!
ReplyDeleteLove hearing about your successes and how much you love your work. Very heartwarming.
Hopeful, too. :)
Have a great weekend!
Sounds like a great week all around!
ReplyDeleteCongrats, Jessica! I love hearing of new contracts--always a good sign.
ReplyDeleteI love these beautifully positive posts in the pub industry. And it's such a thrill when agents love their job. Actually, it's inspiring when anyone loves their job. It's so good of you to put this in the universe today. ;)
ReplyDeleteDon't dunk your cookies in the wine and you'll be just fine. I sadly know this from experience ;)
ReplyDeleteKidding. Glad you had such a nice, productive week!
Congratulations, Jessica and BookEnds :-)!
ReplyDeletesounds like a productive week! Enjoy a good ol' rest.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful (and busy) week! Enjoy your weekend.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had the chocolate and wine to celebrate all the good stuff.
