This industry is heavily dominated by left leaning statists who were taught at their liberal arts colleges that there are certain groups of disadvantaged people who deserve special rights over others. They believe that the government is the only force righteous enough to manage the balance of the scales of fairness. Marcusean logic.
Our book is antithesis of this school of thought. We explain that government's only job should be to defend our individual liberties, not to actively fight for fairness. Almost 100 years of 'social justice' and we still have 10% unemployment, a huge population on welfare, and poverty, despite all of the wealth redistribution mandated by the almighty federal government.
So back to the question: Do You Need a Conservative Literary Agent For Conservative Books? Check out one of our rejections last week.
Thank you for thinking of me with your query. While this sounds like a strong project, I'm afraid it doesn't strike me as a likely fit with me and my particular editorial contacts. I wish you well in finding the right agent for your work.
I doubt our book will be a fit for 99.9% of the editorial contacts in the literary industry, because of our disapproval with statism.
At least she could appreciate the strength of our project, though even the potential for profit won't motivate a liberal to entertain conservative thought from an 'average' person.
Still, we'll keep on fighting
