Hello Patrika,
I am a writer. My first book is self published. I wrote the book that didn't exist when my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. I found a thousand first person stories and medical books but nothing that had both. I find it is hard to get the word out without an agent and it is so hard to find an agent who is accepting new clients. My book is called "Into the Mist" because that is how it feels when someone you love is fading away a little more every day. My target audience is baby boomers and health care professionals.
My second book is a chick-lit novel. I'm going to wait until I find an agent or publisher for this one. IF ANYBODY HAS AN AGENT WHO WILL ACCEPT A NEW CLIENT PLEASE SHARE.
