Unfortunately, it wasn't my calling. Also, my extreme fear of sharks didn't help. But at least I tried, right? ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17286619245718024981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944439566538632040.post-63311369926111878062014-01-21T15:49:26.735-05:002014-01-21T15:49:26.735-05:00Thanks for being on the blog, Julia.

They do not contradict each other one bit.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09462486350293703991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944439566538632040.post-6045738961276798592014-01-21T15:09:28.525-05:002014-01-21T15:09:28.525-05:00It's nice to see Agent Julia A.

Even though she didn't take my novel, her tweets about sport-themed fiction (and tweets by an American literary agent who is a fan of Liverpool soccer team) inspired me to expand the sport pages in my novel. Girls' soccer is about 8% of my second YA fiction and after connecting it with the main storyline, hopefully it makes the novel more interesting. So for her (and the other agent) indirect contribution, I am grateful and one of the girls playing soccer was named after her. Best wishes to all the girls playing soccer and other sports to to all the authors writing about her.G.M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02652216131823877445noreply@blogger.com
