So agent who I'm talking to who I like very much& who I was intro'd to by someone I trust & have similar backgrounds (his books are repped by them) is busy until London book fair, but am wondering shouldn't my book be presented there for bids? I don't want to wait till next year

Oh right yeah I have 4 publishers who are interested. One I turned down already. 2 of the other 3 have my proposal. Have met one publisher they came to see me a couple of weeks ago. Oh and met another publisher but haven't sent proposal yet as wanted to have an agent.
The other publisher has my old proposal. There are significant changes now for example @garyyounge intro quote and Madani Younis chapter where I interviewed him. I am so confused right now and have so much other work to do! It's hard to concentrate on this...
Should I just leave Glasgow early, go to @LondonBookFair and try sell it myself?
Anyway here's an excerpt from The intro of #TheWannabe (At the centre of this unconventional memoir is a celebration of the white, brown and black working classes. The unsung heroes and the dirtbags

It's a true story from the point of view of a former foreign correspondent about danger and love, the art of letter writing, betrayal, mental health and the power of words
I first started writing it in 2012 though I didn't know I was writing a book then. Over the years I have written more and in 2018 I was planning to make it a women foreign correspondents anthology. Now it's more of a memoir. Currently 47k words #TheWannabe samanthaasumadu.substack.com/about
