Welcome to my very first querying vlog! I started querying literary agents for my YA novel at the beginning of December...and I have some fun updates: requests, rejections, lost emails and more!

It''s really hard to get a literary agent. The query trenches are tough. Let's talk about it - and if you're querying your book now, I'd love to know how you're finding the experience as well! And, how you're doing with continuing to write as you go through the ups and downs!

I'm Nicole Wilbur and I'm a writer and "story nerd", which basically means I love analyzing books, movies, and shows to understand how and why they work. I make videos about becoming a better writer, editing my books, and writing resources. And -- as I start on the journey towards traditionally publishing one of my books -- I'm sharing every step of the process. If this sounds good to you, hit the subscribe button! :)
