I asked someone I knew for a recommendation as to where to start. She said I would be best off with checking out this website. I'm here looking around, reading up on all of the aspects. I am particularly concerned about safety as I have not been able to find an agency willing to take me (I'm a BBW) and I am sort of anxious at not having that protection.
Beyond that, I'm still a little naive and unaware of the industry. Hoping to gain some more insight.
