New Agent Alert: Colleen Lindsay at FinePrint Literary Management

Editor's Note: As of Fall 2011, Colleen Lindsay is no longer agenting. Do not query her. Reminder: Newer agents are golden opportunities for new writers because they’re likely building their client list; however, always make sure your work is as perfect as it can be before submitting, and only query agencies that are a great fit for your work. Otherwise, you’re just wasting time and postage.

Reminder: New literary agents (with this spotlight featuring Colleen Lindsay at FinePrint Literary Management) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building his or her client list.

Got a tip this morning that FinePrint Literary had taken on a new agent: Colleen Lindsay. Prior to becoming an agent, Ms. Lindsay was the director of publicity for Del Rey Books. Also, she was a reviewer for the San Francisco Chronicle.
