"Interview with an Agent" - INTERACTIVE WITH SUSAN HAWK

[Krista G.]

You're welcome, otherside89girl!

Just wanted to pop back in and mention that I posted an interview WITH NATHAN'S AGENT, Catherine Drayton of InkWell Management, on the blog today. Here's the link:

And Nathan's isn't the only big name on her list... :)

Just wanted to let everyone know that Taylor Martindale of Sandra Dijkstra Literary Agency is going to be answering reader questions all day on my blog this Friday, July 9. I'll drop back in to post the link once the interview's up.

Here's that promised link:

And the best part? As I mentioned earlier, it's an INTERACTIVE interview, so if you drop in and leave a question in the comments sometime before five o'clock this evening, Ms. Martindale will leave an answer for you in the comments sometime today as well.

I'm hosting another interactive interview on my blog. Today's willing subject is Weronika Janczuk of D4EO Literary Agency. Here's the link:

Ms. Janczuk has agreed to take questions through the weekend, so feel free to hop on over anytime!

I'm having another interactive interview tomorrow, September 10, this one with Barbara Galletly of Georges Borchardt, Inc. Ms. Galletly represents more literary and adult fiction (as well as some nonfiction), so if you have a question for her, feel free to drop by.

I'll also be hosting another interactive interview a week from Friday, on September 17, with Kate McKean of Howard Morhaim Literary Agency. Ms. McKean focuses more on commercial fiction, as well as most categories of YA and MG, so between this week and next, you should be able to target your question to a like-minded agent.

I won't post specific links to the interviews (since I already feel like I'm taking advantage of these wonderful forums), but just know that opportunity will be there.

Best of luck to everyone in their agent hunts!

Krista, I don't think you're taking advantage of the forums at all!!! Alot of folks here are very interested in agents, and would love this information.

I think your interviews are terrific. The one you did with Nathan was so funny! :)

Thanks for your support, Mira:)
