Don't suppose anyone can recommend a childrens literary agent who's accepting new clients please?

Lives in hope.

Thank you.

Wtaching & bumping!

Thank you.

still bumping, my hope will last for a very long time.

Bump for you.

What sort of books are you writing? Dh has just started hence my interest in agents

Thank you. I've written 4 younger children books (5-7) with alot more in the pipeline and have ideas for books for older children that I need to start once I get some funds

It's alot harder looking for an agent then it is to write them.

OOh Good luck. Dh is writing non fiction but only just started properly though he has a few in the pipeline

I have a yearbook that has a list of publishers and agents inside, there's loads of publishers for non-fiction books so he should get one of these, they sell them in Waterstones/WH Smiths, they are red. Called the Artists and writers yearbook and published by A&B (or something like this, I've loaned mine to another writer and an illustrator).

Best of luck.

Thank you, I'll have a look. I really appreciate that.

She's not looking at the moment because of a backlog.

Oh, I emailed to ask, she couldn't open the book attachment so has asked me to post it to her, it's a start

Thats promising though, Good luck!

Ohh, and an email from a publisher asking to look at one, it's going to be an interesting day.

Thank you. fingers and toes crossed hey!

Different publisher? Thats great :) remember me being nice to you when you are a famous author

My ambition for dh is to get him to the Hay festival so I can go in the VIP bit

There's a very small childrens publisher, they only started the company up last year so I've sent it to them. I'll remember everyone
Festivals sound good.

(drums fingers and keeps checking inbox)

How do you know that your work is any good? It could be dire and I'm living in lala land. (self doubt setting in now)

No idea but always worth trying!

There's a writer who lives across the road with a couple of illustrators. He's been self publishing for a while because he doesn't want the big publishers taking a massive cut from his books. I may look into this, he and his housemates like the ideas in the books.

Still not heard anything today.
