Indecisive...

Many months ago, last November to be exact, I submitted a book proposal to Stargate novels. I got a reply saying they got the proposal, and another one (in May) saying that they were starting to send out (rejection) notices. It said: "If you don't receive an email within the next 24 hours, it simply means we haven't read your submission yet (so there's still a chance it could be good news). Please be patient."

I haven't received anything yet. Should I write and inquire? Should I just sit tight and wait? I'm not patient right now. I was flattered at first -- not rejected yet, this is good. Now I'm paranoid. Did they send me a "not what we're looking for" and I just missed it?

I am manic, I know. I've gotten other stuff from them, including announcements about the books they are publishing.

They said "be patient". How much more patient should I be? I used to find the uncertainty cool -- as long as I don't know, there is always the possibility that I still have a chance. Now. Well, now, I'm just want to know.

Thanks for the info. I will see what I can find out. I'm sure (unfortunately) that waiting patiently will be the right answer.
