When I published my first book, I thought long and hard about publishing my next (3). I realized I wanted to know if I could do publishing the traditional way. I wanted to know if I had what it takes.
Everyone was telling me the same thing. Query an Agent, never a Publisher. I took the advice to heart-- but then I realized: How many agents cover what I write?
Not many.
And while I can take snippets of different categories and mesh them into that Contemporary feel...I wanted someone special.
I currently have only two people I want for agents.
Both probably won't give my book a thought. I've never been this afraid in my life, to do something. But I guess it's better to try than to be afraid to.
If I fail at getting the agent I want to represent me, I have to come to terms with my self publishing career remaining just that.
Until next time...
