Their relationship exaggerates the differences between men and women in a very humorous way and, yet, they remain in love. They're great fun.(less)

I've written an adventure book with humor and the main character is a Christian. I've had a number of people read it, and they have all really liked it. However, no agent has been interested. Do you think your agent might be a good fit?

That publisher did what they promised, published my book, but nothing else. No promotion, etc... The good news is that my book has been published without self-publishing, but the bad news is that no one, beyond my small sphere of influence, knows about it. The other bad news is that this publisher's bad reputation made it even more difficult to work with an agent or a mainstream publisher when I tried to submit my second book.

If I had to do it over again, I think I would keep trying to get an agent and then go through a mainstream publisher. I understand that Tom Clancy submitted "The Hunt for Red October" something like 17 times before it was accepted.

Good Luck!(less)

Trent Ruble's Blog: The Other Way It Is

All Beatles Weekend

One weekend evening in the late 1970s, my friend, Jim Guy, and I were cruising around the city in his 1969 Camaro. Sixty-nine Camaros were just as cool then as they are now and that made the evening even better. And, making it even better was listening to the radio station and hearing our classmate, Bob Klein, announce the next song! This wasn't uncommon as several of the local stations employed o Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Trent Ruble (?)

“Then it was just him and the killer in the room. Harrison’s eyes were adjusting to the darkness and he could now see a figure lying on the floor. Even so, he couldn’t see well enough to identify him, but he didn’t need to. He already knew who the killer was.”
― Trent Allen Ruble, Harrison Davis: Proof Beyond a Reasonable Doubt
