I saw them in Writers Digest and thought i might submit my work to them. I don't have to pay anything but i just wanted to know if anyone has dealt with them before or knows if they are ligit.
Thanky much.
Thanky much.
Can you trust Writer's Digest or should I not even look there?
How many rejections can you stand? Seriously. Finish your book. Run it by some beta readers. Take their advice to heart. Write a query letter. Polish that until it's succinct. Send your query out in batches of ten to twenty. If you get no response, rework your query, send that one out to another batch of ten or twenty. Keep doing that until you get a nibble. Thirty, forty, fifty rejection's until acceptance isn't unusual.
In the meantime, write another book. Repeat the above.
As far as your plot goes? It depends on how well you write. The premise sounds good but agents don't represent plots; they represent books.
Good luck!
The strange thing was that after 2 days they sent me another message telling me that they decided to reduce the fees so I can go further with the project!
If you see an agent advertise in Writer's Digest that means "Cross this one off your list right now."
