Most writers just jump into the waters blindly and then wonder why they get rejections. <br />I remember Catherine Coulter's tip about conventions - have a friend take your photo with the editor or agent and then include that with the letter. She said that will get you an extra ten minutes because the person will remember you.L.

Don't tell them what you're calling for--just ask who agent is for the book. They'll usually assume you're calling from Hollywood or some other such entity and give it to you readily. It's not a nuclear secret they're trying to hide.Les Edgertonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17997858985904932554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6333789853886557070.post-43561608426223804582010-09-02T11:58:18.960-04:002010-09-02T11:58:18.960-04:00This is excellent!
