New Literary Agent Alert: Paula Munier of Talcott Notch Literary
Reminder: New literary agents (with this spotlight featuring Paula Munier of Talcott Notch Literary) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building his or her client list.
About Paula: Paula Munier comes to Talcott Notch Literary with broad experience creating and marketing exceptional content in all formats across all markets for such media giants as Disney, Gannett, Greenspun Media Group, and Quayside.
