Sell Sell Sell

A catchy little 12 point guide to  selling your self as a professional writer by Meg Rosoff. My personal favourite…

‘Contrary to popular belief, editors and agents are gagging for good books.’

Meg Rosoff

Imagine you’re being paid 35k a year as an editor for Random House. You’ve got three kids, a husband / wife and a £350,000 a year mortage. Gagging is maybe too mild a word for how how desperate you are for good books.

You can probably boil down all 12 points to just one.

Write a good book.
