I'm finding an agent
WARNING! Lamentations will follow.
I don't know why it took me so long to realize that the only way to be successful in the world of book publishing is to be one of two things — A) Very rich or B) the client of a well-connected, long respected agent. Since I can't be A then I'm opting to be B. So now I'm on a search for that agent who will land me the real book deal (what a concept! Get paid to write books!). I just wish I had thought of it sooner, then I wouldn't have given my babies (manuscripts) away to a bogus publisher.

Yes,if you are going to publish fiction of the type that is appealing to the general public, you must have a good agent. Also, don't overlook the power of an outstanding editor. It doesn't matter what you have written if you can't be understood.
