It's not just online stories. I've had good things come as the result of a story in AHMM (an Italian publisher wanting to publish a translation of CURSE OF THE KISSING COUSINS) and an anthology story (a Dutch guy looking for stories for a reprint anthology.) I'm starting to think short stories are my best marketing tool.

This is really great to know. It is good to know somebody's out there looking. It is important to get your work out there in as many places as you can. Thanks for sharing this. It is very encouraging.

The same thing happened to Stuart Neville last year, a THUG LIT story he wrote was read by uber-agent Nat Sobel (represents James Ellroy amd Richard Russo). Mr. Sobel took him on as a client - then sold his book THE TWELVE (UK) THE GHOSTS OF BELFAST (US).<br />

THUG LIT is definitely the place where agents are scouting.

The good news is that there are more ways to get a foot in the door nowadays. The bad news is that there are a hell of a lot of feet, and not that many doors. Or maybe there are a lot of doors, but almost all of them are to broom-closets.
