Switch to Small Press

I've decided to suspend my agent hunt and pursue small press options for my big book, The Gospel of Thomas. I stuck it out for eighteen months and collected 22 rejection notices. I believe in this story, in its power and its ability to reach readers, so I decided to switch tactics. I made a list of small presses that publish fiction (there are many more that specialize in poetry), and tonight, I made my first query. I will let you know if I get a bite.
