How'd You Find This Site?

I googled urban fantasy, prompts, and writing and landed in this place. I am brand-spanking new, as in this is my very first post.

I'm not sure how I found you

It might have been through Preditors and Editors, or by doing research on Publish America (one signed contract too late! *sigh*).

I'm looking forward to participating. I'm currently shopping for an agent for novel #2, writing #3 and taking another round at publishing short stories.

I was researching agents and just stumbled upon it. What luck!

Same reason. Since I have submitted to about 5 agents and the response has been similar, thx, but no thx, I went hunting for more names...

I think I found it from a link on a writers blog...I can not remember...it has been awhile.

I found you through a writers blog, but I don't remember which one.

I found it through a friend of the family whose opinion I respect and admire greatly. She directed me here, and told me to peruse, so - three months after I registered - perusal a-plenty!

If I recall correctly, I found this web site through an Internet search for writing forums.

I was blog-hopping reading about agents and options clauses and other publishing related stuff, and I found a link to this board on some blog or other. I can't remember where, actually, which is kinda sad

I need to spend more time blog-hopping, and actually bookmark a few this time

My friend Liz rec'd me.

On Twitter, a chat buddy recommended here for finding writing partners.

I found it when I read the preface to "Offspring" by Liam Jackson.

Looking forward to visiting here daily for inspiration =)

Hello All!!

I found this site by accidentally everytime I tried researching a particular agent. I tell you what, I was saved a lot of heart ache because of the things and experiences various members said and experienced before me.

Thanks for suffering in my place.

Somebody linked this in the Nanowrimo forums in a Thread about getting published. I think. Or else they linked to an Agent's blog which had the Link in it. Either way, it was ultimately through Nano.

I found the site through someone's blog, which I can't remember the name of. It was either Pub Rants (with Agent K), Janet Reid, or the Rejectionist.

Now that I think about it, they've probably all mentioned this forum in one way or another.
I'm glad to be here!

Google, I think. Last year. I just never had enough time to really check it out until now.

I got it off a page on Blogspot called "How Publishing Really Works." There is a lot of great information on that page too.

nice to be here...

I've found this site through Google's search, I am looking for good site that can help me and can give me a good advice, and it's good to be here in this forum....

Google.

I was specifically searching for scifi/fantasy forum sites, because I am considering incorporating a forum into my as of yet unposted website.

I've been lurking for while. When I check out publishers or agents I've never heard of, this is place I google (that and predators/editors.)

I was googling the name of an "agent" and his "Publishing House" Who requested a manuscript that I'd written. His name came up in the Bewares Thread that pointed me to this site. I come every day since then!

I googled 'PublishAmerica'. And thank Deep Thought I did, too.

I stumbled onto it while surfing for how to get published info.

I'm a member of SCBWI (for about 18 months now, so I guess I am beyond Newbie stage there), and someone mentioned a really excellent post by Michael Stearns (sp?) on upstartcrowliterary.com. After reading the post, I browsed around the site and found lots of useful material for writers (dealing with agents, craft, what makes a strong children's story submission, etc.). Upstart Crow listed Absolute Write as one of the best places to connect with other writers, so I checked it out, and here I am.
