Hello,
I'm a first time poster here so I'm sorry if I'm doing this incorrectly...
I have a published novel and I am not happy with the publishing company. The book started as a stand alone but has sequel potential. My contract states I have to let the current publisher see the sequel before I can query anyone else.
I started to write the sequel but because I am not happy with my publisher and don't want to give them sequel rights.
I am torn between finishing the novel as a sequel or changing it so the characters are new (and not part of the series).
Is it possible to have the sequel published by another company? I do not have an agent-- I signed a contract with a publisher (which was probably stupid to do).
Thank you for any advice.
