New Literary Agent Alert: Sarah Nego of Corvisiero Literary
Reminder: New literary agents (with this spotlight featuring Sarah Nego of Corvisiero Literary) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building his or her client list.
About Sarah: Sarah Nego divides her time between her own writing and working with amazing authors as an Jr. Agent and PR Team Leader at Corvisiero Literary Agency. Her background is in marketing, and she uses her experience to help authors build their platforms and promote their work. Learn more about her by visiting her blog, her Twitter, and her Facebook.
She is seeking: "I am only accepting middle grade and young adult fiction manuscripts. I'm open to any genre within those age groups, but prefer speculative fiction. Contemporary is not my favorite, but I will look at it. I am not interested in seeing poetry, novels in verse, short stories/novellas or anything focused on saving the environment (I'm all for recycling, but don't want to represent it)."
