New Literary Agent Alert: Eric Smith of P.S. Literary
Literary agent alerts (like this one with Eric Smith of P.S. Literary) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building their client list.
About Eric: Eric Smith is an associate literary agent at P.S. Literary, with a love for young adult books, sci-fi, fantasy, and literary fiction. He began his publishing career at Quirk Books in Philadelphia, working social media and marketing on numerous books he absolutely adored.
