Sending off query letters to editors about articles gives me such a buzz. Not as big a buzz as actually submitting something, but a buzz all the same.

Bzzzz. Bzz bzz.

that's how I ended up going into my career--I loved the selling more than the actual writing.

If it's other people's stuff you're selling, though, do you still get the same adrenalin-punch of overcoming fear? Maybe you do...

if there's a responsibility to someone else involved then for me it's even more nerve-racking...

Actually, yes, I can see that. In a way, waiting for my students' A-level results this year and last was scarier than waiting for my own.
