If it is good enough someone else will be willing to take the risk of taking on my carefully ordered cat hair. <br />It just irritates the fleas out of me that I am expected to write Australiana because I live here. It's like it is a rite of passage. You have to do Australiana before you are considered to be a writer. I do not believe it. It is utter furry nonsense. <br />It is my own furrault I should have started trying to do something serious about purrblication when I was mice catching for a career. Er, I still mice catch but I am trying to cut down on the quantity and concentrate on tuna fishing instead.catdownunderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06959328192182156574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663680578112260744.post-13454677756675517492009-11-20T06:06:00.737+10:302009-11-20T06:06:00.737+10:30You don't live in the wrong place, my furry li...You don't live in the wrong place, my furry little friend. The world has never been smaller and US & UK agents do take on Australian clients. Right now it is just difficult for anyone to get an agent or a publishing deal.<br /><br />Write because you love to write. The moment you start to hate it, or see it as a chore, then that will be the moment to give up.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663680578112260744.post-76685142127759437592009-11-19T22:36:01.534+10:302009-11-19T22:36:01.534+10:30Nuts to that!

Fantasy and Science Fiction are certainly not set in Australia.. Phillipa Ballentine is a Kiwi, she writes set in the UK.<br /><br />Borrow an address. <br /><br />Better yet, send the manuscript electronically to someone in the US who can send it via local post.<br /><br />Publish it yourself on the web chapter by chapter.<br /><br />Record it and distribute through Podiobooks. Getting readership leads to publishing....<br /><br />(Eragon was self published, Dan Brown has gone self publishing .....<br /><br />You are good enough, you are talented enough, ignore those detractors. If you didn't have anything you wanted to submit, that is reasonable and certainly better than submitting garbage...Hollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15032454459129277383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663680578112260744.post-42618338420205088142009-11-19T09:48:59.891+10:302009-11-19T09:48:59.891+10:30"Twortion"?
