COMM Post--Patience...Patience...

I sent out 13 email to doctors all over the U.S. and am waiting for a few more comments of positive support for my book. I hate rushing a task to complete it, and later realizing that I should have just relaxed, took a few deep breaths, and did it the right way without a deadline. I feel this way about the query letter I have been working on for two months. Book publishers and agents receive thousands of query letters a year, and skim them and toss out the letters that don't sell them in the first sentence. We all filter out poor quality items or attitudes, but these people do it for a living. I received a three sentence, closer paragraph, that will work just fine.
