1. If you’re looking for an agent, hunt for freshly minted ones on their way up at established agencies. Brian Henry of Quick Brown Fox has a useful newsletter. He identifies fledgling agents who aren’t too jaded and are actually looking for clients. Imagine that! Keep an eye on his blog if you’re in the market for an agent. I knew Brian when we both worked at Harlequin. He doesn’t remember me, but I’ve decided he’s not a bad guy despite that.
2. Don’t let rejection so your production and shipping. Like they say, it’s a subjective business. Hone it and then follow Heinlein’s rule: keep sending it out.
3. If it’s good, you will eventually connect with someone who loves it. Or at least sees that they can sell it.
(Or become a publisher yourself…but that’s a different blog post.)
