How did you discovered W&A?

Well... I was searching about J.K. Rowling's early life to know which publishing house accepted Harry Potter books first. There I found Bloomsbury's site and looked for the option "Contact Us". Then comes the big surprise: Right at the page's top was written - "Please note that Bloomsbury no longer accept unsolicited manuscripts and cannot return any material sent to us. Please visit the Writers' and Artists' website and the Writers’ and Artists’ blog to find out more about getting published and how to get an agent." That's why I'm here now!!

So how did you find Writers & Artists?

I heard about it while I was researching agents. In the end, a friend gave me an copy and really is helping me through the difficult patches in my never ending agent hunt (grimaces)

My dad had joined a writing course and so there was one around the house and I joined the Writers Bureau and it reminded me of it while I was learning to write.
