Is this literary agent going to respond?

[madmag_99]

I sent a query letter to a literary agent and got this e-mail;

The agent writes below;

Forgive the first para. My mistake. We will be in touch if we want to read this.

Sincerely,

this is his previous email;

Thank you for the email. I have passed this on to my associate who would normally be in touch if we have any interest in pursuing this. However, I liked your pitch so please submit this to me. I am in Los Angeles next week but back in NYC on the 30th.

One of PMA’s biggest fall projects, The Christmas Cookie Club by Ann Pearlman (Simon & Schuster), was named a USA Today Top 12 Christmas Book of 2010. CBS Films has acquired film rights The Christmas Cookie Club. Wendy Finerman ("The Devil Wears Prada," "Forrest Gump") is producing. The Story revolves around an annual holiday celebration in which a dozen women trade their homemade cookies. As the evening unfolds, the friends bare their personal adventures of the past 12 months. hi name here, who is Pearlman's lit agent, will exec produce.

PMA is very selective about the clients and projects it manages. as we seek long term management relationships with prolific authors who write cutting edge fiction or narrative non fiction with global marketing potential as well as motion picture and television production potential. We are deluged with submissions and are selective about who and what we manage, but we do review everything.

With all good wishes, I remain

Sincerely yours,

, President


I took the agents name out of the email for security reasons.

Anyway Should I send another email after the 30th, or keep looking for other agents? Will they let me know wheter or not I've been accepted or rejected? I'd rather be rejected than just ignored so I can know if I need to move on.

hey there. I've actually published a book before, so I could probably help you out with that. I'm not really sure if this literary agent is credible or not, but if an agent has not responded to you after some time then you should probably move on. I would keep on submitting to other agents in the meantime, but agents are picky when it comes to representing new authors. You might get some rejections. If you can't get an agent to help you, I recommend that you self-publish as an option. I'm currently doing it, and it is worth it. I recently made a new website that has some information on how to go about publishing a book. It's called http://www.2publishabook.com. I hope it helps you in your quest. Anyway good luck.
