AGENTS
For a list of agents, go to the Australian Literary Agents Association site. It has useful material on finding an agent, various literary contacts (including manuscript assessment services) and a list of members. A useful and informative site for very new writers to those who have been around for a while. This American site has some useful information on it as well: Agent Query.
And you've got to go and visit this blog:
Miss Snark, the literary agent - all manner of useful advice, with humour and grace. And when you've finished with her go to this. Such fame.
And while you're in a blog-reading mood go to this one as well (but have a glass of brandy in hand if you're the sensitive type): BookAngst 101
