Well, my luck hasn't been all good today (only got 5 hours of sleep, got stuck in a traffic jam/snow storm for an hour and a half on the highway, missed the first session of the conference, and I'm exhausted), but when it really mattered, Jupiter came through for me.
My original pitch appointment was with Gary Heidt, the one agent who would be least interested in what I've written. I was dying for Scott Hoffman of Folio Literary Management because his literary interests and what he's looking for matches The Diaries of Lilith Fyerider to a T.
The conference handout says, "Scott is looking for literary fiction, spiritual or religious-themed fiction, and fantasy that crosses over into literary fiction, and first novels." That IS The Diaries of Lilith Fyerider.
After the last session of the day, they did a pitch appointment swap. I stood at the desk for a half-hour waiting and when the moment to strike came, I went in for the kill and came out with Scott's first appointment tomorrow morning.
Thank the gods and goddesses! May they bless me tomorrow morning as well!
