'How to Get an Agent' with Sheila M. Averbuch
About this Event
A literary agent is the best way for aspiring novelists to get their book into the world. But what do agents want to know when we writers first contact them? That intro letter must distil a full novel into a compelling pitch that answers the key question in the agent's mind: 'What's your story about?'
Sheila M. Averbuch, novelist and author of Pitch Your Book: write the letter that hooks an agent on your novel, explains how fiction writers can craft a letter to agents. What are the top pitfalls that bedevil writers when pitching their books? Do self-published authors still need a pitch, even if they're not seeking an agent?
We look forward to a fascinating evening with the warm welcome you'd expect from your local library. Tea and coffee will be available. All are welcome, no matter what stage of your writing career you are at.
Please note that this session is best suited to novelists, rather than non-fiction writers or writers of picture books.
'At last, a clear, concise resource to demystify the submissions process. Bursting with great advice and well-researched.' - Sara Grant, author of The Ultimate Guide to Editing Your Novel.
