Quite a
few of my clients have released their books this past year, always a
happy moment for me. My bookshelves are crammed with gift copies, which
they often send as thank-you's, and I love seeing the finished
product. And how far the book has come since we began working together,
in class or privately.
Some
have decided to go with agents, some on their own. But many, agented or
not, have explored beyond the Big Five NYC publishers and found
alternative homes for their books.
One author I spoke with recently said she's so happy with how her book came out, via a partner press, and she's grateful she was open to other options besides the Big Five. Her agent even counseled her against them, and I've heard this from other authors this past year.
