AMEN!!!I love this! This just stresses something I have been telling my writer friends for a while: writing is a BUSINESS. Agents want someone who is professional and can take feedback and rejection positively. Don't try to be smart or gimmicky. Deal with them the same way you would an important business deal (because that's what it is). Thanks for posting this

The author of these articles is very good. Another extremely helpful piece. This possibly the most so — at least to me, because I'm going solely traditional publishing.Found this today and I thought it was interesting and might prove helpful.

That's is interesting. I've been presenting a book series as a brand. Not sure if it will work but hoping that it does of course.
When it comes to being a brand, especially in the film world, they do say that you've made it when your character gets turned into a doll. Now, with writers how many of us are well-known enough to become a plaything for children, or to be sat on a shelf next to our books?
Oh, of course...
It's Barbie JK Rowling !
