We have a winner from last week’s poll! At the end of the business day on Thursday, the author who had accumulated the most votes was K whose “I wondered if the girl at the front desk knew that things like me existed,” garnered a healthy 236 votes!
So K, bring it on! Send me your manuscript, and I’ll review it promptly.
Everyone else, don’t be discouraged if you weren’t chosen as a finalist or if you didn’t win. Do feel free to query me—there were lots of great entries!
Thanks for doing this contest. It was a lot of fun. One more way you guys are earning that 'Best Blogs' award!

My only regret is that you don't rep young adult. But no worries, I'm sure the rest of the agents at D&G will be just as awesome!
