EVERYONE WANTS TO BE AN AUTHOR

A fond hello to all my faithful followers, friends, and family

Today, I have a rather off-the-wall question for you.

As most of you know, I have a novel written (titled BRIDGETOWN HIGH) that has been published by a small, but good, publishing house. Unfortunately, I am as you also know, a writer and not a great salesman. Therefore most people don't know me very well, thus the book only sold a few hundred copies. The contract with my publisher is about to expire and I'm wondering what you think my chances would be of re-marketing it through an agent this time and thus through a major publishing house? I've had some great reviews on Amazon and Goodreads, as many of you know, but due to my rather unknown status it didn't sell as well as I think it should. Currently, as most of you also know, I am writing a sequel to it (working title: BRIDGETOWN MURDERS) that several of you have demanded.

Do you have any suggestions, or am I beating the proverbial dead horse?
