I've never ever done anything like this before, but I thought maybe someone out there could help me. I write what I think and hope may be literary novels. I submitted my fourth to 77 agents a few months ago. I've received 11 manuscript requests. This has never happened to me before, so it feels (felt) great. Now, though, I have received 8 rejections from those 11 agents. Some offered compliments and explanations for why they passed. I am running out of chances and hope. I do not want to give up, though, because I really believe this novel is publishable. I think I'm going to need a Plan B. I have no spiffy connections. I'm just a very hard-working writer who really wants to be published. Any ideas for how I might approach this? What could my Plan B entail?
