Wondering who will accept your novel without an agent? Well, here's my list with links for all you authors out there. And let me tell you I would have liked this list when I started researching. NOTES: 1. This list is not a complete list of all the options. 2. I'd advise you to research ALL publishers on http://absolutewrite.com & other sites.
