Are you selective in who you submit to, or will anyone do? For me: I at least try to find out if they're legit. http://www.stephenlodge.com Novels by Stephen Lodge: "Charley Sunday's Texas Outfit!" "Nickel-Plated Dream" "Shadows of Eagles"

I do a lot of e-queries of agents. Generally I go to a site that will tell me whether they've sold anything, or whether they're a member of the association most agents should be. I figure if someone wants to see more, I'll do a complete search on their legitimacy at that point. The two items above should go a long way in that regard. Mindsight Moderator Aston's Blog |

I have a (rather short) list with the most favorable at the top, and the acceptable at the bottom. Respactability, quality, genre, sales, pricing, are things I check out. I try to avoid the mistakes I made in the past. If the publisher at the bottom of the list does not accept me, I will not try the PA kind of publishers, but will do it myself, E-publish or simply drop it on the net for free. |
