My poor stupid Oprah book isn't ever gonna get done. The latest thing I'm calling it is Oprah's Dead Son. Maybe I'll make it a pome, instead. All advertising is spam. Here's Ginny Good in its entirety:

Dear Gerard, Your fabulous website has helped our literary agency, WriteHigh, to acquire some truly amazing clients. But now, unfortunately, we need to stop, because we have reached the point of no return—we can't take a single new query. Is there something you can print to indicate that we do not wish to accept new queries? Thank you so much!

Dear Gerard, Our agency is relatively new. We were in The Wall Street Journal last month, and we're becoming better known. I do a lot of research, and your site helps. Sure—go ahead and add us! We have a program for young writers that is like that—for writers under 20-years-old (a limited number of them), we help them learn to write queries and proposals. We also do free editing on their work to help them perfect their craft. To me, being an agent is about good literature, not making the most money, and I see that in your site, too. Good to meet you! Michele Free

I don't delete people. If you want me to remove that "***Redacted***" stuff, which I agree is pretty obnoxious, I will, but there's such a thing as free speech and freedom of the press and provisions against restraint of trade in the good old US of A and if you're gonna call yourself a literary agent, I'm gonna call you a literary agent. Thanks. G.

***Redacted***

Are you no longer a literary agent? You say you are. As soon as you're not on any other list of so-called lit agents, I'll take you off mine. How about that? Thanks. G.

***Redacted***

I'll delete your quote. G.

Doyen Literary Services
1931 660th Street
Newell, IA 50568

Dear Gerard Jones: First off, you came up with a good marketing strategy for yourself! Our agency handles a lot of trade nonfiction for adults (meaning appropriate for a general audience, the type of material found in any bookstore) as well as the occasional outstanding novel. We do not handle category fiction, pornography, or poetry. We are always on the lookout for new talent, and welcome snail-mail queries and submissions (e-mail is OK after you are a client) because we do our reading at night on the living room couch, away from computers. Authors should always enclose contact info plus a SASE (Self-Addressed, Stamped Envelope) for reply, and a Self-Addressed Stamped mailer if you want the materials returned. Please do not send checks or loose stamps. Also, don't send material piecemeal; it's much easier if everything comes together due to the volume of submissions we receive. While it's best not to approach editors if you are seeking representation, do be honest and up-front about the publishers you've contacted-sometimes we can see a way around rejections. To garner our interest: Fiction: Send a short (1-page max) plot summary, short bio (1 paragraph), and the first 3 to 6 pages of the manuscript with SASE. Nonfiction: Send us your title, subtitle, concept for the book, an analysis of the competing books stating why yours is better/different, your qualifications for doing the book, and SASE. Advanced degrees in your subject area are nice, but are often not absolutely essential if you are a fine writer and knowledgeable about your topic. If you have well-written material that fills a market niche and would like to develop a book-writing career, we look forward to hearing from you! B.J. Doyen, Pres. Doyen Literary Services, Inc.
