Anthology as Novel?


Hi,
What do you feel are the chances of selling an anthology of three stories, with a common thread and theme, and branding it as ONE novel? Do you guys think that this sort of branding might work? Pl do advise.
Any India-happy agent that I could possibly approach?

It depends a lot on how you do it and who you show it to.

I'm sorry to be so ambiguous, but I don't know enough, both about your book and India. If those are stories set in the same city with the same people, I can easily see it. If there is a small connection, it can still work.

Best is to ask an agent or a publisher. They know the market, they know if they can sell it.
