Side Bar Agency

[Robert Stephenson]

In the side bar on this site a Literary Agency is listed Writers Book Literary Agency - please be advised that this isn't an agency to approach and should be avoided at all costs. Prediters and Editors has listed this group as Strongly NOT RECOMMENDED. This agency has yet to reject an author since about March 2007, though their spin suggests they are new they have operated under different names for many years.

Those are Google adsense ads, and out of my hands. Maybe one day I'll upgrade the community and get rid of them, but that's a low priority for my $. It's good that you're offering a caution to the inexperienced writer.

Actually I know all the offers in the side bar -- just avoid them, legitimate work offers and writerly stuff doesn't use google ads, they come through printed or known writer sources.

Robert, thanks for flagging this.

As an aside, I clicked on what I thought was my in messages box a couple of days ago, got dragged to some pink lolly-pop lookin site that was trying to convince me someone had a crush on me. Look at my photo, even I'm not that gullible.
