help me connect with a children's book agent and/or editor
for children's book writers who want to connect with the right agent and/or editor
Now that the doors on my consulting business have been open a couple of months, I'm hearing similar questions from clients and potential clients. I'll tackle them here over the next few weeks. FAQ 1: How many queries can I send? Answer: When I hear this question, I immediately see a vat of overcooked spaghetti being thrown against a wall. In other words, this is not the right question. The question should be, "How do I find agents whose interests fit mine and whose interests fit my projects?" Depending upon your interests and your projects, you may find one agent who fits or 10. No matter the number, this alignment gives you the best chance of success in finding your match. And, if you come to me after sending out 75 queries, it becomes very, very difficult, nigh, improbable that we can align the right project/s with the right agent. Save your spaghetti for pasta night.
