Janet Reid: The Two Parts Of Brave

I’ve just read a wonderful post over at Janet Reid’s blog.

Janet Reid is a literary agent, based in New York. She’s exacting and pernickety and very difficult to land as an agent (I make her sound like a prize carp): but she’s also knowledgeable and successful and supportive, and makes fabulous deals for her clients.

She’s also very much aware of how heartbreaking the writing life can be, as you’ll discover if you read this old blog post of hers.
