Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	I am doing a personal interview with Sheri McConnell tomorrow. She is the founder of the National Association of Women Writers. I am going to pick her brain about getting published; all the different ways and how they compare. Do you have any questions you'd like me to ask her? _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com

They may not even advertise it that way, but to get your mannie in the door, you really need an agent. If you check out a particular publisher's Web site, they usually give very detailed info about WHAT and HOW they accept mannie's and also the time of year; or EVEN if they DO accept them.
