Make Your Writing Stand Out Among the Rest
Hey there Writers and Muse Daters, are you wondering about how to make your writing standout among a sea of writing? In this episode, Annalisa speaks with Rachel Garner, agent with Books & Such Literary Management, representing both fiction and nonfiction. She’s been an agent for 12 years and currently represents an impressive list of 75 bestselling and award-winning authors.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
- That pairing a businessperson mindset with artist’s mindset will help you sell your novel
- That an understanding of the marketplace and the context into which your book will be placed is essential
- What to include (and what not to) in your query letter to catch an agent’s attention
- How the visibility of your novel depends on you
- That a rejection from a literary agent or publisher doesn’t necessarily mean your work isn’t appreciated. Context is key!
