First, the second NY literary agent I tried said No to my memoir proposal. She thought it was commercial; she wasn´t in love with it.
Of course I want to get it in the mail to someone else asap, but I am being advised by a published author friend who is in Colorado to wait Mexico, it seems, presently has an unfavorable image in the US. And agents and editors, the reasoning goes, will have a hard time convincing the marketers that they can sell my book.
I AM NOT A PATIENT PERSON!
Wait or don´t wait. Comments?
Blue Iguanas, Cold Caguamas, Blinking Jesus and other surprises found in Mexico diario
Seems to me I read not too long ago in Writer's Digest that Latino lit is a rising star. And even if it isn't, what will you gain by waiting?
