Hello everyone , firstly I hope you are all keeping well and being creative.Â
Â
I am a screenwriter and have several scripts with known directors and producers with connections to Universal and Netflix etc. I sold seven scripts last month alone that are now making major offers of Hollywood stars. I am searching for an agent that can help me deal with contracts and get scripts to those that are unsolicited. I have done well getting contacts and scripts up till now but think it’s time to be represented.Â

These days couples are often couples but they are chatting for a single purpose so they are also involved in this idea. In fact, on Valentine's Day, many partners ask the question, what should we talk about. So I can Idea the best for all of them. unique valentines day gifts In fact, everyone celebrates this day, which is why you can easily shop from here for your partner.And these are the things that everyone likes and I think you will like them too.

I have completed the first short story (c6000 words) in what will be a five part series for ages 6 - 10 . The second is almost complete and I have outlines of the remaining parts.
Should I detail the entire story arc to agents when submitting Part One?
The story stands alone but would also work with illustrations, is this something an agent will suggest or should it be mentioned in the submission?
I am new to the submission process so all advice greatly appreciated.
Long story short - In Spring 2017 my 2yr old daughter gets cancer. My partner and I enrich her imagination throughout treatment to keep her spirits up.
Much of the silliness we concocted forms the basis for a picture book that I set to work on and, after 3 years, have now completed.
The book is designed to appeal to all kids, but to have extra meaning to kids in hospital (and their parents) giving them a little bit extra courage and hope.
If I have to self publish, I will. But I first want to try and get an agent, publisher, yadda, yadda.
I am reading The Writers& Artists Yearbook, but really need something to do with song writing. Is there a similar publication for musicians?
Thank you,
Hilary
I was wondering what sort of writing space my fellow writers have when they are creating their masterpieces. Â
I spent quite a few years working at a tiny desk in a corner of a very small kitchen but since getting my own apartment a couple of years ago I've set my spare bedroom up as a study. I took a photo a few days ago of the desk area where I write and just wondered if we all have pretty much the same set-up or if there are some radical alternatives out there i.e. floating trays for use in the bath or even anything weirder and more wonderful!
I run a small walking tour company and I have an idea for a non-fiction book about the city I operate the tours in. I have it roughly planned- the themes for each chapter etc. Before I start writing, I wanted to contact agents or publishers about the idea first to ask if they are interested before I started writing. Is it acceptable to do this or would they require the completed book before considering it? Many thanks.

This rule "No simultaneous submissions" bothers me a lot. It's present in most, if not all submission guidelines. I understand that publisher doesn't want other publishers to have the exact same novel, that is perfectly understanding and valid point. Problem is, at least in my experience, most publishers will not answer to your submission, ever. Not even a short formal letter of rejection which I would really appreciate.
