One more excerpt from a round-table discussion among four young agents, published in Poets & Writers magazine (Jan/Feb 09 issue). Here's what they said they were looking for. A writer who:
* is incredibly gifted (so that's all of us, then :-))
* is willing to participate in the publication by brainstorming, working with the marketing dept.
* gets out there using their connections
* promotes their book wherever they go, at every opportunity
(for more information on taking an idea all the way to publication, see my book, YOUR WRITING COACH, published by Nicholas Brealey and available on Amazon and in stores.)
