You two are strong willed people (as well as cool as shit) and I got a hell of a lot of respect for you both.

The place I submitted it to seems to publish mostly cheap, cheesy horror, so I dunno really, it needs to have a good cover to set it apart from the rest of the books so it doesn't get lost in a sea of vampires and zombies and shit. The publisher I originally was going to send it to, well I found a load of blog posts saying they'd become unethical and ripped off their authors, that depressed me a bit, I so thought they were the publisher for me. I wish horror wasn't such a debased genre. __________________ i won

I guess I have to wait to see what this publisher says first, I mean if they can convince me that it won't be marketed in the same way as the more 'obvious' horror novels then I'd probably see how that goes first. Tbh in horror, all you need is a recommendation from Stephen King and you're set, and he chucks his praise at anything different, really. Not the best thing to rely on in terms of success, though.

It may be looking into though, like certain agents specialize in certain genres, and they obviously have good connections to publishers, sort of like a filter for publishers to sift through the crap.

Generally books won't just be published the way they are written first either. Like most agencies will set you up with an editor, to get the best work out with rewriting and such.
