Be aware, Susan Mears is a SCAM. She doesn’t care about your project, she doesn’t even read them. She is relentless in trying to get you to fall for a huge scam, setting up risky loans to fund pitching your projects. Don’t believe anything she says. Materials she provides and charges for do not match up. RUN.

RIP off! She uses a secondary agency called ‘Merlin’. It supposed to specialise and help new writers to get published, but it’s just another way of scamming writers out of their money. I trusted Susan Mears due to her reputation, so I feel extremely disappointed and angry. All what matters to them is people’s money. Stay away. Scam artistes
