Research, research, and more research — is required to find a good literary agent — that, and a lot of luck so, fingers crossed, please wish me boatloads of it. As you might already know or guessed, I’m looking for one to help promote my books (about them here).

Thus far, here’s the search and solicit basics I’ve learned. Though I can’t truly vouch for them, they sound good, no? Note: these concern adult literary fiction only:

1. Yay, the fun part is read a lot, a lot, a lot. (More on this later.)
2. Write the full book.
3. Polish it until it gleams, and then polish it some more.
4. Read books like yours. Ones published within the last ten years, by first time authors.
