Finding the right agent for your book is like finding a needle in a haystack: it’s actually pretty easy if you toss the right match into the pile. Now that you’ve written your book, if you’re like most new writers, you’re faced with the daunting prospect of navigating the strange and foreign land of the Publishing Industry. SandDollar Publishing can help. I’ve spent literally thousands of hours researching the publishing industry and speaking with authors, agents, and publishers to learn the industry so I can now pass this valuable information to you.

Rev. Daniel Alsop, author of My Thoughts About Faith, says this about our services: “After I had written my first manuscript, Joe guided me through the process of presenting it to literary agents and publishers. He gave me advice about how to write a query letter and how to submit it to an agent who would work for me. Joe was with me in every step of this process. “With Joe's excellent advice I quickly found an agent that I could trust who offered me a representation contract and would be able to find the right publisher for my material. Because of Joe's many years of experience in this field the entire process of finding the right publisher for my book, My Thoughts About Faith was made much easier for me.” For a fraction of what you’d pay a vanity press to self-publish your book, I can help you find a professional agent who will work for you — and for your book. I will: ¨ Prepare a customized list of agents in your genre who are accepting new clients, complete with industry-respected ratings for each agent. ¨ Help you select the right agent for you. ¨ Help you prepare a query letter that “sells” your book. ¨ Work with you to put together a winning “business plan” for your book—the book proposal. I have over 25 years of professional, technical, and creative writing experience. My work has appeared at BeachBrowser.com, and in the Gulf Breeze News, Pensacola News Journal, Splash! Magazine, and my column, “The Writers Block,” currently appears in the Navarre Press. In addition to personalized, one-on-one assistance, I also conduct small-group seminars on getting started in the publishing industry. This seminar includes preparing a winning query letter. I also provide editing services to both writers and agents. |
