So, something I've been thinking about alot lately is whether or not it I should attempt to get a literary agent or if I should continue down the unsolicited submissions path. I've read articles about both options and I'm still not sure what's the best way to go. There are clearly pros and cons to both.
It's definitely a crap shoot for me to send in submissions on my own and finding publishing houses that still accept unsolicited submissions is definitely difficult. Though, I don't know that it will prove more difficult than actually reaching a legitimate agent that will want to work with me and also have my best interest in mind. I know that there are alot of crappy agents out there that aren't very reputable.
Any readers out there that happen to have some insight? If so, let me know.
For now I think I'm going to continue forward with sending in some query letters and unsolicited manuscripts to the few publishers that are willing to accept them and that I feel would be a good match for my stories. I'll let you know how I make out...
Keep your fingers crossed that I will soon be signing a book deal! A girl can dream, can't she?
