Good!

Two secrets:
First, you gotta have a good idea. It has to be good enough so that you even want to take time to write it.
Second, you really need a good agent. As you can see we had just completed our first book and had it published by a major New York publisher.
Our agent was our son Jim Hornfischer at the Literary Group International. LGI is located in NYC, but Jim is working out of Austin, Texas. He maintains his own personal wep page, and you can get info there or E-mail him for more information.
