Who better to help you find the best agent than a great agent working in today’s marketplace? Here at WD, we publish the Guide to Literary Agents as a huge database of agents and what they want. But getting the book is just the first step. You need to investigate agents for possible submissions then research what they like and what they’re selling. The more you target your submissions, the better off you’ll be. And when you receive an offer of representation from an agent, how do you know if they’re the best fit for you in the long run? Luckily for us, we have an expert on the matter to teach a webinar. Agent Gina Panettieri (Talcott Notch) teaches “How To Find The Right Agent To Sell Your Book” on Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012. All attendees get a critique.
THE CRITIQUE!
Registrants are invited to submit a ‘pitch and a page’ — a 25-word summary as well as the opening 250 words of their book. All submissions are guaranteed a written critique by instructor Gina Panettieri.

Weird coincidence. I queried Ms. Panattieri July 11, 2012, and got the rejection week before last. Perhaps if I’d attended this webinar, I’d have fared better…
