Getting an agent

That's right. Knock, knock, knocking on agent's dooooors. It can be frustrating. It can be exhausting. It can be embarrassing. It's always tough. Trying to discover each agent's preferences, submission guidelines, likes and dislikes, and areas of expertise can feel like a full time job. But we do it because we love it. We do it because we believe we're good enough -- if only someone else would believe in us. We do it to reach that difficult yet very attainable goal of publication.
Strike that.
Our goal isn't just "publication." It's telepathy, remember? Meeting of the minds. Connecting with another individual on a very ethereal and mental scale. But not just meeting and connecting...
Affecting.
We love to affect people with our writing, don't we?
Don't we?
