Urgh urgh urgh.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the ideas for future blogs too. Copyright issues are good to know about, and quite tricky. <BR/><BR/>And certainly I will post about agents. Every good writer needs a good agent, but finding a good agent is as fraught with peril as finding a good marriage partner. <BR/><BR/>Stay tuned.Jennifer Ashley/ Allyson James / Ashley Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16501969781398343424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138705851348115177.post-14890380412629846222007-03-08T15:27:00.000-07:002007-03-08T15:27:00.000-07:00Loved hearing from Farrah on her first experiences...Loved hearing from Farrah on her first experiences in the writing world. I'm hoping to get her book this weekend!<BR/><BR/>Since I'm just starting to seek out info on agents (something I'd neglected, figuring I wouldn't need one until I've made a sale or two, but I've seen advice saying it might be a good idea to get one before the first sale), I could use advice on finding a good one.<BR/><BR/>I'm also extremely interested in copyright issues, how authors feel about fan fiction and fan art (something I don't see a whole lot of "creator" input on), and I love to hear from cover models (especially the male ones, heheheh!).<BR/><BR/>I also like "nitpick" posts now and then. What terms, misuses of the English language (or other languages), misspellings, etc., make authors twitch? For example, I saw one on a rerun of <I>Judge Judy</I> today, where a woman said she "borrowed [money] to" the defendant. I've heard people say this before, and it irks me. The term is "lent"! I've had some fun conversations with people on things like this. :DJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16280968989475111315noreply@blogger.com
