I have a project that has been in its last portion of the rough draft for a while. What would be the best course of action? Hunt after an agent? Hand it to someone to proofread? I do think (as most people that view their work) that it could stand on some drug store shelves and be purchased, so I'm asking the people that rub shoulders with the likes of Elaine Cunningham and friends, what next?

I don't know, but if you find out, let me know. :-)

Sure thing, Dove. I finished the rough draft today and am looking for obvious errors at the moment.
Put it in a drawer and wait three days, then two more, then reread it, then give to to some one who will make you cry. If that jerk likes it good if not smack him/her and tell them to proofread it not judge it.
Don't give it to someone you will "protect" you. The agent and the editor that gets this isn't you friend and you are not the first thing they've read today. They won't care about your feelings so be prepared.
Get use to rejection. Many a writer has said that they could wallpaper their house with rejections. So remember when you ride a bike you fall alot, get up and try again. Or Look you dad in the eye and tell him your not get back on that thing and march your bleeding five year ass home.
Either way GOOD LUCK.
Mr. Fishy is running out of good books and the used book store is on to a Fishy.
If you make it tell, Mr. Fishy were to get his copy, and sign it,
"To Mr. Fishy who encouaged me to not suck."

muwhahahaha, f**kin hilarious! I expect to get a lot of rejections on this one. I also expect should it get published to have a beer with Limbaugh, as he provided a lot of comic relief during the typing of it.

I received my first rejection on this yesterday. The editor stated it was written well, but it lacked a hook and after 10 pages, he went elsewhere.
Mister Fishy, I'm going to get this done. I found it fun enough to write for just over a year.

Mister Fishy, you can do a search for my ebook. It's called Shift: Election Weekend.
