So, I've gave my manuscript a bit of a once over, did some more googling and managed to find some genuine agents this time to send it to for some appraisal. Last time I did this, it turned out I'd found myself a vanity publisher whose google search results made them look like an agent...
I managed to find 8 in total, and sent emails/completed forms for 7 of them as 1 wasn't taking any submissions. I fully expect to either hear nothing back at all, or get rejections, but that's the way it goes.
I've also learned that Hotmail's spellchecker is the most temperamental thing I've ever came across. It just seems to turn it self off while you're typing, never to return, so you've no idea if you're making any errors!
