MissCurious2021 asked:


My boyfriend has already written a science fiction book and is attempting to publish it. I’ve seen some places that state a literary agent is necessary on many occasions or the publisher won’t even look at it. Is this true? If not how do you know which publisher to go to? Any recommendations or advice for a young first time science fiction writer?

I’m a relatively new science fiction author and I’d like to know what kind of science fiction readers like to read currently. I have a time travel novella and an alternate history novel, so I’d like to find out from science fiction fans.
