On November 12, have your afternoon tea( if you’re on the East Coast) with Bonnie Garmus, whose book, Lessons in Chemistry, has been on the New York Times Best Seller list for 72 weeks as of this writing. Three years before Bonnie found massive success at age 64, she submitted a different manuscript 97 times to 97 different agents and never heard back. Bonnie’s story of tenaciousness, dedication, and belief is a story we all need to hear, especially as we navigate the waters of finding the perfect literary agent for our book.
You’ll also spend time with Sadeqa Johnson and hear about her path to becoming not only a New York Times best-selling author, but a Reese Witherspoon’s Book Club pick with her novel, The House of Eve.
Literary agent Noah Ballard, who represents memoir and fiction, will take us through the role of the agent and how you can find the right fit for you and your book. Agent Michelle Wolfson will discuss her specialty, young adult fiction, and how to prepare your manuscript for submission. Literary agent Cherise Fisher will talk about building the author-agent relationship. And our sessions on contract rights, royalties, and how to build your author platform will put you way ahead in your publishing journey.
This superb faculty will offer their expert advice and answer your questions in five interactive sessions designed to give you foundational knowledge and practical advice from the best experts in the field. It all begins November 6. And the support doesn’t end there. Included in this remarkable package are six monthly workshops, from December 2023 to May 2024, to help you find the perfect agent for your manuscript.
