It is annoying Teri and we can all be kicking the wall, but it's still out there. And it's not just agents saying it. It's editors rejecting MS and stating it as a reason.
This is a money making business and if editors are shooting down MSs because of it, it trickles down. Of course, there can be an editor who goes against that, like you say that your France book is getting a nice look, but as we all know, the exception is not the rule.
A look at the wonderful children's books and books for teenagers set elsewhere should debunk that real quick.
I say for right now, we agree to disagree. But over the next few months, I will have lots of contact with editors, including my own, who was the head guy at Abrams Children's for several years.
I'll ask some questions and get back to you all in January.
