Two posts in ONE DAY!
Been a long time since I managed that, but I couldn't resist tooting my own horn. I did make the finals in Literary Agents Nathan Bransford's first paragraph contest. I already feel like a winner after being one of the ten finalists out of more than 2600 entries. Hop on over to his blog so that you can read all of the finalists entries and vote for your favorite. There are some really good ones so the competition from here on out will be extremely stiff.

Travis, congratulations! I was a finalist last year, and I'm still floating on air. It's just a big deal to be picked out of so many!
GOOD LUCK! :D
Congratulations on being picked, and congratulations on already being one of the clear front-runners in the voting, too!
Oh, and Travis, if you have short stories, you should enter one into our Genre Wars Contest over on The Literary Lab.
HUGE congrats!!! Just saw at Nathan's blog and came straight over to congratulate you!
It's great news, and I can't say I'm surprised in the least. Congratulations!
Travis, I'm so excited for you!!
WOOHOO! That's awesome! Congrats!
Travis,
I was just on Nathan's blog and saw that you are a finalist. Congrats!!!!! I hadn't seen your entry before that... Somehow, i hadn't yet managed to read through all of them yet. Gee, imagine that. :P (I don't know how Nathan has read through all of them already!)
Anyway, Good luck. How exciting!
Woo hoo! Go for it! Congrats, big guy.
Travis, big congrats to you pal. You have some stiff competition, but I'm not surprised at you being in the finals. You have some good stuff there.
Good luck, buddy.
I told you! I told you! Yipee! I am so excited for you!!!!!

Congratulations Travis! I knew it was awesome - glad Nathan thinks so too.
Congrats! Though, I'm not surprised at all!
Congratulations! I saw the competition page yesterday and just the thought of it paralysed me. Well done for making the finals - must be good stuff. I look forward to hearing when the book will be published and reading it!
Major congrats to you!! That is really quite an accomplishment, especially given the number and quality of entries this year. ;-)
Travis - yours was my absolute favorite! You better write it or have written it cause I'm now dying to read it!!!
Congratulations!

Congratulations, Travis! Nathan made great choices, and your paragraph is superb. Good luck!
Congratulations, Travis!!!
Way to go, Travis, making top ten! I went, took a look, paled -- and wimped out. I tell myself I might have made top ten, though. (It's easier this way...)
That's excellent! Congrats! :D

A terrific paragraph and you got my vote.
Add in my congrats, Travis! What an amazing accomplishment! Did you celebrate?
Oh that's wonderful news. I'm so happy for you. Congratulation. :) There's no question as to why that's a winning paragraph. Nicely done.
I just read the great news on Nathan's site!!! This is far better than winning the lottery. I can't imagine how happy you must be. I'm sure this is one small step from representation. Go Travis!!!!!
CONGRATS!!!!
Congratulations, Travis!
Travis!! Congratulations!!!
