Pet Hates by louise

From a writer's  POV: www.bit.ly/dcKo2S

and an agent's: www.bit.ly/dgQPhA

Just a couple of blog posts I've done. I researched the agent one, the writer one is from my own experience. And I'd love it if you could add any of your own.

Hi Louise,

I read both POVs and it's like talking politics, both sides think they're right.  It's all a matter of *hitting* the right *people* with your MS or having the *right* connections in some cases or just being a *known* writer would get your foot through the door. In all cases, it's all a matter of *keep trying* and never give up.  I had written here somewhere about a brief story of rejections from JK Rowling and John Grisham.  Had they given up, the world wouldn't have had enjoyed their brilliance.
