I wanted to take a brief moment. A moment to sit back and think over the decade long uphill climb I've been making as an writer who focus has been on growing as a novelist. Well, to be honest, I want to shout out this new available option, and share that I've returned to the traditional publishing route.
I never had an elusive literary agent before, but they're out there; and I'm currently on the hunt for one. I've decided that this is the best (if slowest) route to learning how to handle being in the book/publishing industry from story creation to bookstore sales. I know I haven't shared this outside of my small circle, but I want my own publishing house. I still have a lot of learning to do, yet I'm now secure enough in my desire that I can put this dream in the universe. The first of my current two projects are just about ready for professional packaging. I think I've talked about that. With all that said, I've started my agent search- Yay me. The first thing I did was pull out an old 2008 copy of Writers Digest's Guide to Literary Agents. That was the pebble that caused the far reaching ripple in the pond. After the second internet search for/check-up on an agency listed, I discovered that now they have free online databases of Literary Agents. Needlessly, I got lost in the sauce and went ham. But, it's not all fun and indulgence. I still have to put my best foot forward; not because of the competition but because I need someone who will be willing to invest in me and my overreaching career. This shift of focus from how to who has made me more intrigued in the industry. Things aren't the same as when I first started! Praises Be! Now that I've shared a short ramble, let me return to my writing and developing or planning and editing. Thanks for Listening Sabrina Louise Andielle
