I've spent hours making notes and lists, from several writer's forums, on publishers and agents to avoid. The numerous enraging experiences are paralyzing me to death, as I just dedicated several years to writing and illustrating a picture book. I've studied carefully how to make my cover letter, query, and outline, and believe I have a set that's up to specks. I'm not in a hurry, but I would feel so bad to get tangled up with a crummy company after all the work I've done. The well-known publishing houses only deal with agents. So, who's a good agent? I wish there could be some way for an unknown like myself to find a publisher or agent that cares a hoot and isn't into scamming people. I have the Writer's Market Book, but it's no better than eeny,meeny,miney,mo, as to who I can trust to be professional. Is there any way to find out who the good people are?
