This Week
- By: Jessica Faust | Date: Apr 16 2010
Things I did this week that I loved . . .
- 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!
And isn't wine and cookies the best pairing ever? After brownies and single-malt, that is 😉
Sounds like a great week!
Chocolate and dark beer go well together, too.
Cookies and wine! I'd never have thought of that.
Wine and cookies? Really? Hmm. Interesting.
Congrats on a great week.
Sounds like an awesome week. And I hope you have an awesome weekend, too.
What did you do in your "spare" time she says smiling – that was a lot of work there.
This is wonderful, what a great week!
Love 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!
Congrats, Jessica! I love hearing of new contracts–always a good sign.
I 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. 😉
Love a great week.
Just 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. 🙂
Don't dunk your cookies in the wine and you'll be just fine. I sadly know this from experience 😉
Kidding. Glad you had such a nice, productive week!
Congratulations, Jessica and BookEnds :-)!
sounds like a productive week! Enjoy a good ol' rest.
What a wonderful (and busy) week! Enjoy your weekend.
Glad you had the chocolate and wine to celebrate all the good stuff.
