GFX Excerpt from my in-development Novel

Aye, there are many ways you can approach this. Indeed, there are examples of people whom have given away large chunks of a book, or even self-published, before attracting the attention of a publisher. So my advice isn't "absolute", either. But based on a few things I have read -- including an awesome, awesome text from one of my favourite sf writers, Orson Scott Card -- and people I have spoken with, I think the best route is getting short fiction into the relevant publications, then using it to springboard your attempts at pitching your novel; ideally with not too much given away for free online.
