Today isn't a day off from looking for my dream literary agent. If anything I'm even more inspired to work a little harder because I've got nothing but time.
There are a lot of tools available and I could sit at my laptop or go on a field trip to a book store and work in a comfy chair out of my comfort zone and all those oh-so-easy-to-distract me away from my main event other chores! How do I know about these things? Because I've done this before... I did the "find an agent" thing about three-and-a-half years ago, when obviously it didn't work out.
So I look for books by southern authors and peruse their "acknowledgments" to see if they "thank" their agents. I start with the obvious ones and then move on to those who are a little more obscure - maybe their agents are a bit more hungry and open to first timers like me.
I'll probably start at BN and then go to Blue Bicycle Books on King St. if you want to join me in my search today.
Still feeling great and positive that the perfect agent is out there looking for me too!
