Your feedback proved invaluable. You were the only agent who gave me enthusiastic yet constructive feedback. You me told me that I had to make the book more personal, rather than have it read like a report from a journalist. I'm so glad I incorporated your feedback into the book... especially when journalists send me quotes like this:

“Travel, romance and music plus a fascinating behind the scenes look at a foreign news bureau, The Buffalo Funeral is a page turning adventure. Ange writes with honesty, humour and an intimacy that makes you feel as though you've always been best friends. Recommended reading!" – Mary-Lou Stephens, ABC Radio
Ange Takats, The Buffalo Funeral
The ms + assessment arrived yesterday afternoon. I just wanted to thank you for all your comments (extremely helpful as usual) and the 4 letters of recommendation. Thanks for such a big effort on my part. I'll put everything to good use.

This is to let you know that Sue Hines wants to publish Plato's Cave. She emailed me the week after I last contacted you. I can hardly believe it.
Suddenly all the work and the waiting seem worthwhile. It also shows you were right about the book. As I've said before, this wouldn't be happening without your encouragement and the important changes to the MS that you initiated. I'll let you know what happens next.
