| Re: Books like your wip? There is a funny thing about fitting a novel or a story into the market.
Many (many) years ago I completed my second novel, a massive story coming in at over 1000 pages. I did a second, then third draft and left it for a while. (This is about 20 years ago now) and submitted to a publisher.
I had a very nice letter back saying it was well written, was a lot of fun, but they did not think it was marketable. Y'see one of the main story lines was a romance between a human in his late teens/early twenties and a 300 year old vampire.
Apparently that kind of thing would never work.
Ever. |
