In traditional publishing, literary agents are key players, acting as gatekeepers to major publishing houses.🏮
They have a talent for shaping books to fit the market, but their enthusiasm for a book is subjective.
Consider Steve Barry's story: 118 rejections before success, now over 20 million books sold.
Charles Levin advocates for independent publishing, where authors keep full royalties.
This path demands courage and self-belief, offering potentially great rewards.
Remember, a book's value lies not in an agent's view, but in the author's passion and effort.
