Letters from my agent

(oh darn.)


Dear Lesley:

Thank you for your recent query letter. I agree that it is important to have a catchy title for your novel. However, I must tell you I really don't care for "The World Is About To End You Are Doomed If You Don't Read This Book Immediately." Just being honest! That's my job. Try something a little shorter.

Also, you forgot to mention what the plot would be about.

Keep writing! Success might be just around the corner.

Sincerely,
Rosetta Quakenbush
Literary Agent

Honestly. Some literary agents don't know when they've got a star on their hands. Such lack of insight.
