...then I came upon this small publishing firm requesting YA titles - they are accepting unsolicited manuscripts I think. Linky below.

"September 2014 – we are looking to acquire tantalizing new YA titles debut authors come forth!"

Thanks for sharing this. My novel is nowhere near ready for submission yet, but I'll make a note of them to consider when the book's finished.

Hadn't heard of them so thanks for that, Busty, I emailed them.

I'll put you in the credits ;)

Oooh, thanks for sharing, Busty - definitely reason enough to kick me into re-writing my several-times-started YA book. Finishing the first 3 chapters and writing a synopsis should be quite doable.

They requested full manuscript this week. I'm (very cautiously) excited!

Thanks again, Busty.

How long is your novel, JohnFarley? I've written one that is short - 35,000 words and was told by another agent that it needed to be at least 50,000 and preferably 70,000. Sad

Only 51,000 - eek. And I thought that was long!
