A Goodreads user asked Kendare Blake:

My question is more about publishing, I have been writing my mystery/Thriller and published the draft online and received lots of wonderful feedback. Would posting it online help me with literary agents or hurt me? Also I can't wait for the next book Three Dark Crowns book, I'm glad the series was extended from two to four :)

Kendare Blake Lots of successful books were published or partially published online first, but whether it will hurt or help will depend on the agent, and the project. Just be up front about it when you query, and if you’ve amassed a following be sure to mention that too!
