It's not happening and I'm very close to giving up mentally on my dream of becoming a published author...... I'm very emotional about this dream that I have nurtured for years....
I sent about 17 queries in two batches..... No one has requested anything- no interest. I sent one batch, then changed a query letter and sent the second lot.
I'm facing a nightmare of having to admit that I was a fool all these years believing that I have something to share with the world.
I'm based in the UK, but I was querying US agents as there's a huge market for a self-help book. But maybe this was a mistake. Maybe I should send queries to UK agents as well...which makes more sense as I'm here.
I'm going to change my query for the 2nd time now, and send ourt to 100 agents....after this I give up, what's the point. NOT MEANT TO BE... there would be nothing else to do....
I'd be so grateful if you offered some advice, thoughts.....
