I came across this site as I was looking for more information on a specific agent I'm interested in submitting to. I'm extremely new in the writing arena and was looking for resources.
My name is Heather, I'm 30 years old and only just completed my first manuscript. I've always had an interest in writing but only felt a strong pull to write about a year ago. At the start of the year I sat down to begin working on my first manuscript and completed it in late May.
I did my research, selected the agent carefully, sent off my query, and then realized only about an hour after I'd hit the "send" button that I'd made a quite embarrassing mistake in my letter. Oops.
I don't expect to be hearing back from that agency, which is a shame as it was my first pick. But I'm new. Lesson learned. So I started researching other agents and came across a discussion about them here on the forum
Please bear with me as I'm very new to this field and trying to digest the wealth of information available. Also, if there are any major typos in my posts, my laptop very recently decided to start playing tricks and randomly insert the cursor (as I type unaware) wherever it deems a typo would be most comical. :\
