My agent did the deal. You will not have much luck submitting to major publishers in either country without an agent. You will need to go through the query process here in the US. It might be eaiser to go with a good UK agent, who also has a really good foreign-agent-relationship with a good US agent. A question you will want to ask any prospective UK agent. I wish you luck. Faith Amy,

I'm an aspiring author in the UK who is thinking seriously about just submitting to America straight away and skipping the UK market. Do you have to do anything special to get things sorted out, forms and such? I’m interested in how publishing with an American publisher when you live abroad works for you.

COYOTE DREAMS, which was released in May 2007, had not yet earned out."This makes me feel better about my March release not having earned out yet. Thanks! “Payment #2–November 2007….
