Blogs by writers and by literary agents gives us some almost insider information that wasn’t available before blogging. If you’re looking for an agent you could do worse than search out their blogs. Here are a few agents and a couple of authors sharing their experiences with agency.
THE NEW LITERARY AGENTS – chatty blog from agents who are fairly new to agenting. Guide to Literary Agents – a blog about finding and using agents by the author Chuck Sambuchino. Worth spending some time with. Dystel & Goderich Literary Management – interviews with their authors plus posts by the agents themselves. How To Get Your Novel Published – author David Bridger shares his search for an agent for his novel. BookEnds, LLC – a blog from a literary agency “focusing on fiction and nonfiction books for adult audiences.” An uninspired mission statement, but their blog is interesting and often helpful.
Write well and often,
Two newsletters:
Abundant Freelance Writing – a resource for freelance writers including 3x a week job postings.
Writing With Vision – for those who want to get a book written.
