How to Find a Literary Agent
With the arrival of hybrid- and self-publishing, not every writer needs a literary agent. However, for those writers who plan to traditionally publish, most large publishing houses require a writer have an agent to submit their work. But how do you know if working with an agent is even right for you and your work?
In this live webinar, taught by a literary agent, you will learn everything you need to know about literary agents, including whether working with one is right for you. After a brief introduction on what a literary agent is and does, the workshop will cover resources for finding a literary agent and how to find the one right for you and your work, as well as submission do’s and don’ts and the most important things to consider when submitting to a literary agent. This workshop will be interactive with plenty of time for questions and answers.
