Most of an author’s life is waiting around. According to my agent, Sarah Chalfant at the Wylie Agency, my book (“The Black Pill: A Genealogy of Political Violence”) is now sitting with 16 different publishers.
Random House, Viking, Norton, Pantheon, Penguin Press, Simon & Schuster, Holt, Bloomsbury, Doubleday, Little, Brown, Bold Type Books, Public Affairs, Avid Reader, Grand Central, and One Signal.
Wish me luck.
It's a game of "Hurry Up (when the ball is in your court) and Wait (when the ball is in their court)." Though the word "game" in that first sentence is not at all right. Regardless, I am convinced that. you will persevere (with indomitable spirit).
Best wishes and good hunting! Fingerscrossedly, Mike
