"VICTORIA SPEAKING...." The Agent(s)

The good news is that I mailed via Fed Ex my extensive book proposals last Wednesday. After spending nearly all day at Kinkos making copies of my 40 page proposal and 50 media pages, my proposal was nicely presented in a 3-ring binder.

My cost was a hefty $300 for office supplies, copies and Fed Ex costs for overnight delivery to six agents. One agent is in NYC and five agents in California and one agent in Iowa. Iowa? Yes, that's right, Iowa.

This is my first attempt at publishing a book via an agent. After sending out about 30 query letters. Much to my delight I received 6 agents requesting my proposal for "Victoria Speaking..."

Maybe my table of contents was intimidating, maybe the OBE (out of body experiences) was more than this one, small agent in Encino, California could handle. This agent emailed me last Friday to pass on my project;

"I feel it is a conflict of interest as I represent a psychic presently."

Wow! I thought. "Representing one psychic" is like Haywood house only representing Sylvia Browne or an agency representing "one baseball player."

This agency was a small agency and intuitively I knew she wasn't the one I would have picked.

So.. the waiting game continues. Five agents remain who are reviewing my materials as I type.

enjoy your day!
