Author of THE FOREST FOR THE TREES, a really excellent book about agents written for writers--with advice on marketing our work to agents and publishers. I highly recommend reading this book--very helpful. She has also written THE BRIDGE LADIES and VISUAL THINKING: The Gifts of People who Think in Pictures.

Sweet rejection note. Suggests she is taking on no more new projects until she clears off present ones. Authors take note.
