Summer 2019 Roundtable: The Agent Search
August 7, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
SOLD OUTYou have a finished manuscript. You have no idea what else to do to it. You want to see it between two covers. It’s time to seek an agent. But where do you find them? How do you know if they are right for you? As a group, we’ll discuss the agent search process, including the search tools available and approaches, as well as manuscript contests. Good for prose writers with a complete or near-complete manuscript.
