As of today, I've queried 33 literary agents....

With my newest project.

I gave up on my last manuscript, after querying 200 agents. Now I've started this one.

With the last manuscript, a few agents liked my writing but couldn't relate to the story and/or didn't find it engaging enough.


I know people have suggested self-publishing. I'll likely try it at some point. But I want to keep trying for traditional publishing, at least until I've hit rock bottom with querying. I like the challenge and working my way up.

Just outta curiosity, have you taken any classes or tried to find a writing "mentor". That would do you a lot of good. You'd be surprised how open some established writers/authors, are to that sort of thing.
If you're into the mentor thing, feel free to PM and I'll elaborate for you; I've actually done that myself.

@LucyFuhr I've taken a couple classes. Last year I hired an editor for my book (the one I queried last year)... So I learned a bit from that :) Aww, I'll think about that actually :) I appreciate that!!
