self satisfaction.
So I need to milk as many connections as I can in the publishing biz.
An agent needed to have a look at some sample pages of a book we were doing today. Her email was down, so I tried faxing them to her. But she couldn't read the fax. So I ventured up to the Upper East Side to deliver them in person to her apartment. She was impressed to say the least. It made me late for my co-op meeting, but she'll remember it, probably mention it to my boss, and--who knows--maybe she'll be able to rec a good fiction agent for me.

What kinda stuff do you write? I'm writing my first novel right now, but am still too shy to look for an agent.
