Agent's Perspective on Trends

If you are confused, disheartened or downright frustrated over what to write or not write, check out Mandy Hubbard's post on chasing trends. She's got great advice, and I love how she breaks down the categories and shares her take on what editors are interested in. Look for her latest novel coming out in August, You Wish.

I'll check out the post. I can't wait to read her book either--the premise is so awesome and origibnal, a fabulous twist. And of course, she's just a dang awesomely talented writer. :)

That was a great post! I'm going to have to check her posts more often. I love Mandy Hubbard, I bet she'd be a great agent to work with. I liked Prada and Prejudice and the premise of You Wish sounds awesome!

Yes, it is very interesting. I think it's good for us to be aware of them but to not rule our writing, if you know what I mean.

Best case is that we go and start a trend- right?
