I wrote my book and self published it. It is in the second printing. People who read it want to know what happened after that. I am working on another book and have meterial for about 6 or seven more. Also I write poetry and have been published in the Delta Kappa Delta National Bulletin.
I believe in my book and want to submit it to “Scholastic” for use with school children. Grandma’s and Grandpa’s love it too. I do all the work and also all the marketing and I need an agent. You sound like what I need.

I’m so glad you’re dating! I think the trick is to get past the slush pile. Once you catch an agent’s attention, you can start building that dream relationship. I often listen to interviews with writers and agents, and that might be a good way to bump into the one that’s right for you. There are plenty of interviews at The Writing Show and also on Pen on Fire (Writers on Writing). You can sift through the podcast descriptions and listen to the ones that feature agents. And keep blogging — I’ve heard that they do discover talent that way.

Hi Deb,

I love the scenario you describe. That would be such a mind-blowing way to meet the agent of your dreams. I’m sure it would make for a long term successful relationship too!

Putting it out for all to see may be the perfect strategy for attracting it into your life.

Cheers

George

Thank you for saying that, both of you. I figure, it can’t hurt to put this “out there,” right? You never know who’s listening (grin) I’ll take all the good will the Cosmos care to give.
