So I submitted my synopsis and personal info to another agency. Then the very next day, I had an email to ask me for more material!! Jumping out of my skin excited, right! So, I reply to the email, attaching a further three chapters and....hotmail postmaster informs me the email did not go through. So, I try copying the email address out and sending again....with predicatably, the same result. Fine, so I go back to their website to have a look for another way to contact them. This is where things got shady. Not only did their website not come up when I googled their name, I instead find a whole host of threads on how you should avoid, avoid, avoid, this agency. They run under several different names and is dodgy as. To top it all off, they would make you pay half of the publication costs (thousands of pouds!). Don't you just love google! That line of enquiry therefore has been snipped off.
With my stiff upper lip in place, I have moved on to my next submission, which is really my first choice submission and hence why I had been delaying so that I could make everything perfect.
Another possible life line....my dear friend has a roundabout contact with an agent and is making some enquiries on my behalf!
On the whole things are looking up!
