Unsolicited

Are there any agents that will accept unsolicited mss that you know of?

Believe it or not... there are NO Irish agents that deal in Fantasy.

I believe you've posted this in the wrong place, but here's a thread you should find helpful if you're in the UK/Ireland: http://www.chronicles-network.com/fo...e-fiction.html

Our very own John Jarrold is on the list too!

Re: Unsolicited

Thanks John. I believe I'll need a mini version of Lady Luck sitting on my shoulder to have one of my works plucked out of the billions of other works that are submitted to agents and publishing houses each year.

But I'm hopeful! *grin*
