Sorry, in a computer crash I lost a lot of links from yesterday. Fortunately, there were almost all political links.
Lucienne Diver on finding an agent. Since I just extended my search to include agents who only take (or prefer) snail mail submissions, of interest to me. Maybe to you to. The basics boil down to "Do your research" and "Wheaton's Law."
