It’s been a long process, but I’m finally ready to begin submitting my memoir to literary agents. After more than three years of writing, editing, receiving comments from readers, and making more edits, I’m feeling good about the book. I have studied the most effective ways approach agents and know that I need to follow their instructions for submission exactly. Let the process begin. I am realistic, girding myself for rejection, but willing to be persistent. Wish me the best.
