Literary agent list (updated 11/10/08)

November 10, 2008 - As I attempt to find an agency to pitch my new book, I thought it might be a good idea to list some of the agents I have contacted. At this stage, I've run into issues where companies have listed communication methods, but they don't seem to follow through. I hope that my list will save the time of others who are attempting to find representation.



Preview 'The Developers' via Google Books

September 30, 2008 - Google just recently announced the release of its Google Books Preview program.

Book review: "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller

September 20, 2008 - Writing a review for Catch-22 by Joseph Heller is sort of Catch-22. If I don't tell you enough about it, you probably won't be interested in the book.

August special: "The Developers" for under a buck

August 08, 2008 - Lately I've been reading "Catch-22" by Joseph Heller. It's a great book (watch for a review in the future), but I noticed last week that the paperback price tag was 95 cents. The copy I'm reading is nearly 50 years old, but even still, how could the publisher make money selling books for under a buck?

June 20, 2008 - My first book, "The Developers," can now be downloaded for the Amazon Kindle hand-held reader. While it's debatable whether or not the reader will catch on for the mass market, there's no doubt that i ...



BookExpo update

May 31, 2008 - So far, so good at the BookExpo. Los Angeles is a pretty cool place, and I've made a fair number of contacts on my first day. I still have a number of people to speak with, though, as I try to pitch " ...



Next book stop: Sowebo Art Festival

May 17, 2008 - Nearly every weekend during the spring and summer, there's a festival going on in Baltimore. I'm sure many cities have the same thing, but the cool thing about Baltimore is that every one of these fes ...
