Time for a BLOG FLOG!

Had to add this for a Thursday evening.

I get it. You are an amazing writer! The world falls at your feet when you enter a room. Your "beta-readers" all think the world of you. BUT...

If you submit a project to an agent that does not represent that genre, expect a rejection.

BUT...

Do not respond to an agent after that rejection blaming us for your lack of research. Do you yell at a plumber who refuses to come out and fix your car, blaming them for their lack of ability to "expand their thinking."

Sorry to say it, publishing is no different than any other business.
