"The truth is that most publishing professionals needn't read further than that.
Agents and editors are much more likely to take writers seriously if they can name other writers in their genre whose work they admire. "Whatever you're doing in this business, whether you're an agent, editor, or writer, it's crucially important to keep on top of what's happening in the industry. Though it's true that it can be tough to get a first book published, agents and editors are always looking for the next voice or story." "If an author is a terrific writer and has a voice or perspective or style that's not been seen before, there is a far greater chance it will have a place in the literary market. Every author has a background and a story, which can be told to the book- sellers and public in a boring way or a way that is spectacular."
