As others mentioned, she’s focused on her own righting and wrote me a personal note to that effect after 9 days.

Betsy is no longer accepting clients as she is working on her own writing projects. Should be updated to let others know

Received note that they are not taking new clients. Nowhere was this stated. Much time wasted.

Received from Betsy on 6/7/24: "I'm afraid I'm not taking on new clients for the foreseeable future as I'm currently working on some of my own writing projects."

Author of THE FOREST FOR THE TREES, a really excellent book about agents written for writers--with advice on marketing our work to agents and publishers. I highly recommend reading this book--very helpful. She has also written THE BRIDGE LADIES and VISUAL THINKING: The Gifts of People who Think in Pictures.
