Journeys that seemed exciting when I was twenty now seem to be
much less exciting and much more tiring! Especially because
I'm not doing any driving as I have a uncomfortable habit of
falling asleep on those long French peages.
Since coming home I've gone back to my writing and am now pondering the big question - do I self publish in my new genre, or should I try the get an agent route?
I just looked at a submission page for a well known agency and felt they wanted me to be able to execute many things besides write a good book. Think of a one-line elevator pitch, they said, add a one-page synopsis and name three published books that would stand alongside mine.
Well, heck, isn't that all part of a PR person's job?
I decided to try my hand at a murder mystery and the second draft is just about complete. I'm also toying with using a different name. Are there pros and cons on this? My previous books all come under the general header of Romance but there's no romance in this new one. There might be, but not yet.
