Hello!
I was unsure where to place this thread, but I figured it crossed into International..districtual queries..
I finally finished my Novel, and a big thanks to all of you.
I've been reading a lot of the editing threads and it's been very helpful!
It ended at 104500 words, and it's a YA fantasy novel.
Perhaps a bit heavy, but I can always trim the edges a bit more.
Now for the problem, and I have no experience with this.
I am Norwegian, and I currently reside in two countries, Norway and Sweden.
My book is written in English (All though because it takes place in America I had to remove my British words, as I myself speak British, but this is not the point)
Getting a Scandinavian publisher/agent to look at an English Manuscript is not going to happen.
Have any of you encountered this problem? And how did you solve it?
Is it unusual for English/American agents/publishers to take on foreign authors?
Thanks for reading!
