J: We're trying to get a book we've wrote published. It's slow going.
Awesome. If you don't mind saying, what genre, etc? And how're you going about trying to get it published?
J: It's a book about the utterly nightmarish job of running a boarding school for underage wizards. Currently in the "annoy dozens of literary agents in parallel" stage.
That sounds amazing, J! I wish you all the luck in your efforts to annoy agents. Hopefully you can successfully locate one who is only slightly annoyed.
I've read enough, "Completely and utterly burnt out Snape and Filch run the school" fics that I think I'd love the story, ha.
(Not saying your mains are, uh...crotchetty and somewhat-to-actually-evil old men. Just that staff bitching about the nightmare job of running a wizarding school is totally something I can and have read in the past.)
