One grumpy literary agent, a sea of query fails, and other publishing nonsense.

Jan 30 2012

I have never attempted to publish a novel.  As such, I have no clue about the process. Could you help me understand it?

Oh sure. I’d be happy to take time out of negotiating deals, arguing with contracts departments, working on proposals, reading manuscripts, and watching the Sarah Palin’s Alaska marathon on TLC to explain the publishing process to you. After all, it’s not like you could find that info in any of a thousand different books readily available at any bookstore or library.
