And best of luck on your own writing career. <br /><br />I found the combination of these exchanges rather interesting:<br /><br />Deirdra: "Do you prefer to find your authors through query letters, live pitches or as references from other authors or agents?"<br />Evan: "In recent years I have found my authors through recommendations from editors and other authors."<br /><br />Deirdra: "Would you ever consider representing a new client who previously self-published? Why or why not?"<br />Evan: "Yes, if I felt the book could find a larger audience through a traditional publisher. I've done this a number of times."<br /><br />In other words, to reach him the pathway is not a great query letter and then discovery -- it is getting noticed by someone who knows someone. This applies whether you are passing around a unpublished manuscript or a POD book. Of course, Mr. Marshall is a very successful agent who doesn't take on many clients but it's still rather disheartening to hear. At least he's honest about it, and he was nice enough to submit to an interview.<br /><br />James Aach<br />Author - "Rad Decision: A Novel of Nuclear Power" - a thriller by an nuclear engineer that shows from the inside what a nuclear accident is like. (The key event is the same reactor design and same problem as at Fukushima.)
