[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I write children's books and was recently offered a two book deal. Picture books are hard to get right, and very hard to break into especially for people who don't write/illustrate. I wrote my book -- which is middle grade (grades 4-8) -- with help from a variety of writing books. Check out The Plot Whisperer or Save the Cat to see if either appeal to you. Usually the first step is getting an agent. Some publishers will accept submissions directly from authors, but most of the big ones don't. Agents are worth their weight in gold. [/quote] How did you find an agent willing to represent your book?[/quote]
