I’ve been having some technical problems with the website. I think it’s mostly my end, as the internet has been dicey, but I don’t really know for certain. Hopefully this blog post will go through, but I’m keeping it short just in case!
I just read on one of my forums that Nathan Bransford is no longer going to be a literary agent. I have to admit, I’m shocked by this. Nathan was/is popular as a blogger, and while I don’t know what his sales level was, I assumed he was popular as an agent.
I just sort of wonder…what made him give it up? Was something about CNET more appealing? Is he burned out? Is he living in the poorhouse and not willing to admit it?
I don’t know. I’m shocked and sort of grieving. 
I wanted to submit to him. Oh well.
Anyone else shocked over this?

I really like Nathan Bransford’s blog, though I only read it sporadically. I heard of him through Writer’s Digest and when I first went to his website I was shocked at how young he looked. But after reading awhile, decided he seemed to know his business. I liked his comfortable, low-key style. It’s too bad he’s giving up the agent gig.

I know he has a middle-grade book coming out soon, so maybe he’ll be spending more time on his own writing. His blog (and his correspondence) were greatly appreciated by many, myself included. Best wishes, Nathan!
