agents
I'm really pleased with the way my current novel is turning out, it's somewhat more sophisticated than my previous attempts and I'm hoping is well written. Obviously when I have finished it I would like to be able to actuall send it to be viewed by an agent, but being very new to this area I have no idea who to approach, who's reputable, who's not, what to say, blah. Any help would be really greatly appreciated! Thanks =)

If you're in the UK you should get (or at least get access to) the Writer's and Artist's Yearbook. I think you can get it on Amazon - that will list reputable agents.
thanks for all the help! greatly appreciated, better get my credit card out then...
Make sure that the agent you write to is interested in the kind of fiction that you write. Look at the list of their existing authors and try to imagine yourself amongst them.
Best of luck!
