Hey, all
I'm wondering if there are any industry prejudices against publishers located outside New York (and by outside New York I don't mean Chicago -- I mean Georgia) and publishers that accept submissions directly from authors as well as from agents.
Do either of these give a publisher less cache, less influence with retailers, less likelihood of having their books reviewed by major publications, less snob appeal?
My agent (in New York) is open to suggestions for publishers and I'm wondering if there are any drawbacks to these types of publishers.
