I have thus assembled all of the questions and answers from year one into a PDF file, so you can conveniently have all of this information in one place, and can read it at your leisure, whether it's on your computer, or on your favorite e-reader.

Thank you Mr. Lukeman.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Mr. Lukeman.
ReplyDeleteThank you! I plan to send it to my sister, if you don't mind, and get her hooked on your blog, too.
ReplyDeleteCool Beans! Organized tips and quips.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I'll add it to my Lukeman Library. :)
ReplyDeleteRecently, my friend signed with a well known literary agent in USA. In India he got a publishing contract directly from the publisher and the Indian edition of the book is expected by August end. The US agent never tells anything about the submissions to the publishers in USA. Now, she has asked my friend to send her 6 copies of his book (Indian edition) to resubmit to 6 publishers in USA. What does she mean by RESUBMISSION in this case? Kindly guide.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the book :)
ReplyDeleteWow. What a wealth of information you have given us. You truly are an amazing being. Thank you so much for your generosity.

Dear Mr. Lukeman,
ReplyDeleteKindly advise, it is critical, a specific agent at the Writers House as requested to see my work but now after reading your book, how to land an agent I realize that my work is not like the rest of the works on his client list. What shall I do, do I resubmit to another better fitted agent in the same house now or do I wait to hear back from him.
Sincerely,
Nazia
I currently have an agent for a non-fiction project. I have also completed a novel and asked him to read it. He loved it, but he told me that fiction is too hard to get published in the current environment, so he passed on it. He does not handle fiction. Would it be ethical to submit my manuscript to another agency and, if so, should I submit with a pen name? Thanks so much for your help.
