The market is so difficult that nobody is prepared to take a risk.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14103529618681254875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35619589.post-28185674698927513752011-03-24T14:34:56.483+00:002011-03-24T14:34:56.483+00:00I struggle to see exactly what agents and publishe...I struggle to see exactly what agents and publishers are looking for at all. I think a lot of it depends on whether you're famous already.
