The suspense is killing me![]()
Fwiw, I’ve signed two library deals from forwards and one contacted me after 3 months, the other after one month.
But also keep in mind that that’s 2 library deals (so far) out of 22 forwards for me. So the largest piece of the pie, by far, is “you’ll hear nothing back”
There’s a reason that “write, submit, forget, repeat” is the mantra

But also, I really dig these tracks
