No, seriously, I heard "I deserve..." and "I'm just as good as..." maybe 5 or 6 times at NYCC from writers & artists looking for work. This has been going on for four years now, con after con, and neither has broken into the top five publishers in that time. I wonder why? And just to clarify, while I meet and talk to writers, I can't read pitches & proposals or discuss stories. My job is to find artists only. Oh, I'm not venting, just trying to head off any potential confusion. Don't want people pitching me when they shouldn't be. Hope that helps. Ultimately, it's the editors who hire the writers & artists. They choose the talent on their books. Disturbing but eye-opening fact: No writer...
