Sigrid, Hi! I second the other letters...never pay an agent fee. I sent queries to 50 reputable agents (using Writers Market Online). None charge fees and warn authors not to send to those that do. And ALL sent form reject letters. That's why I went to POD. I'm putting my time and money into my own publicity/marketing. Even if you get it published traditionally, they're only going to peddle it for a brief time. No limits when you do it yourself. And you get much smaller royalties. I'd be more interested in how the crossovers happened...asking POD authors who made the transition, how it happened. Karen
