N Is for Noah

Any Noah Lukeman fans out there? For those of you who don't know, Noah's an agent, but also a published author of a few gems. Check out: "The First Five Pages: A Writer's Guide to Staying Out of the Rejection Pile"; "The Plot Thickens: 8 Ways to Bring Fiction to Life"; "How to Write a Great Query Letter" (a free Amazon Short); "A Dash of Style: The Art and Mastery of Punctuation"; and "The Art of Punctuation". I have the first three books listed here and love them.

Now, Noah has informed me he has a blog where he'll answer questions from writers. Check it out here. How great is that? One more agent willing to give back to the writing community. Yay!

If you've read some of Noah's books, which was your favorite and why?

  5. I've read The First Five Pages. I like the honesty he has in it. If we can't win them over in five pages, what makes us think we'll do it in 50?

    I didn't know about his blog, so thanks for the link.

    On my blog, you asked where I registered my domain name and who hosts my site - my name is registered with Names4Ever and my site is on Dreamhost.
