The road to getting a literary agent is a notoriously thorny one. Most estimates suggest that only about 1 manuscript in about 1000 is plucked from the slushpile, which means that writers are facing huge odds if they're to achieve success. Our (slightly tongue-in cheek) guide shows how that path might look, and the decisions that are to be made on the way. You'll notice that we suggest writers are likely to have to edit and rewrite their manuscript again and again. It's not unheard of for a particular project to go through 20 or more drafts before the project succeeds in getting an agent.

And then of course, even when you have an agent, that doesn't guarantee success with the final goal of securing a publisher. As it happens, we believe strongly in self-publishing (even if only as a fallback plan for most writers.) But then again our graphic suggests there are other options too. Author, Axe-murderer, sheep-farmer ... the possibilities are endless. Trace your route - and best of luck on the journey!
