Where can I find a literary agent?

Question

My book is ready to sell.

Answer 1

Writers and Authors Handbook or you could go through the Yellow Pages.

Answer 2

jam:
The net is full of publishers and most will take your submission and tell you how they wish it set up. I wrote two books and self published because it is next to imposible to get any of these guys interested. They want your manuscript sent regular mail and believe me it takes up to three years to get an answer if you get one at all.
I have since found a place that take submissions and help you along with your work. Please, please, if you take this route, let me know how well it works for you so I can tell others. Browes to New York Literary Agency and there it shows you what to do. They promise to answer your query in two days and they do. If interested they ask you to send manuscript through email and show you how. They promise to get back to you in two weeks and again they do. They are not self publisher pushers. Good luck and again, please let me know how you make out.
