Just because an agent doesn't take you on doesn't mean you haven't caught their eye. Agents take people on because of what the market is looking for, but that can change a lot.

And timely for me as I'm dealing with requests on my current 'The One' while polishing up what could well become 'The One, Take Two' and writing yet further editions of 'The One'... and all the while hoping that the real 'One' is actually a MS in some stage of 'written' as opposed to still residing inside my head... that would be frustrating... even if I know it'll eventually get out of there...Artemis Greyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10849091563671031929noreply@blogger.com
