When you review the client list, you may feel a bit discouraged. As a first-time writer, it seems unlikely that you'll get attention, especially since the focus appears to be on authors who have published multiple books. I'm also confused about how sending the first 10 pages can effectively convey the story. In most novels and movies, the excitement typically begins around the 5th or 6th chapter—at least, that's the case with my novel, and it only gets better from there. I know I have a hit on my hands; it will be someone's loss. Good luck, everyone!
