Agent Insider News

I have some super exciting news to tell you! I think it will just make you smile, maybe even jump up and down with so much happiness you'll "SQUEE!"

For those who have asked for a mentor during the workshop and will be sending in you work for advices and comments, we are having an agent giveaway!! (no, I'm not giving an agent away)

That's right! We've got some help coming directly from our talented agents who will be offering their personal and direct advice, suggestions, and critiques.

YAY!!! Let me just say, I wish I were joining this workshop rather than hosting it!! hehe!

Who are the agents? I know you have been wondering. At least I hope you have! I am waiting on two more response emails before I can list the agents. PLEASE be patient. I promise the list is amazing. You'll be happy, I know!

But, I will go ahead and let you know what the GIVEAWAYS are going to be, so far. I hope more will come in, but if not, this is a great list of agent inside news. Ready?

The First Five Pages Critiqued By an AGENT
The First Three Chapters (of first 50 pages) Critiqued By an AGENT
A Phone Call BY an AGENT

Aren't you glad you signed up for the mentor workshop??

I'll give more details about the giveaways as the time draws closer for the giveaway, so don't miss a day of "classes" or you might miss the announcement!

Operation Agent Ink

UPDATE: PLEASE FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE AFTER YOU SIGN UP. Have you ever wondered what agents were dying to find in their inbox/slush pile? There have been many times I entered a contest and not even received a comment, not even from one of the agents. Or maybe the agent was kind enough to leave a comment that simply said, "Sorry, this just isn't what I'm looking for, but I love the premise and your voice." I always walk away feeling unsatisfied. If I had known exactly what the agent wanted beyond, "YA" or "Fantasy" I might not have even entered a contest I knew I wouldn't win! Even more, I wasted a very busy agents time! Well, your time of guessing is up! OPERATION AGENT INK to the rescue! That's right! This workshop will help aspiring authors get on the list of an agent's WISH LIST! When the workshop is over, your manuscript will be ready to view by a group of AMAZING agents who are dying to see what you've wri...

The Writers Voice Entry

How excited am I? Can't you hear me laughing and squeeing, right there where you are? Yep! I'm excited! I made it tot he first round of the Writers Voice!! So today, I've posted my entry, here int his blog post, for the coaches to come around and read and decide if I'm ready to move on to the next round. Keep your fingers crossed for me PLEASE:) The entry I'm posting as went through numerous rounds of edits and revisions to get it where it is already. I've cut, squeezed, rearranged and replaced so much, I think my brain is on fire! I've changed names, combined characters, cut characters, and I've changed titles a couple of times and agonized over my genre until I cried . I've put th e first three chapters through a couple of workshops and had feedback from a few agents, so I'm sure I 've got the results I wanted. (I can be honest, can't I?) So, here we go, you beautiful guys and dolls. Feel free to leave any comments that might ...

GUTGAA Meet and Greet!

Hey everyone! I'm taking a quick break from vacation to introduce myself and say hi! I'm really looking forward to meeting everyone and meeting some new friends! -Where do you write? I live in a camper. My writing spot? Usually in bed. But sometimes I get a chance to write in the "living room" but that's rare. When I am at home (yay!) I have my own little office:) I love m space there and I can write during the day light hours. Oh, who am I kidding! That's rare. -Quick. Go to your writing space, sit down and look to your left. What is the first thing you see? My husband. Yeah, he sleeps with me! -Favorite time to write? At night. When it's quite. Aaahhh. Sweet quite. -Drink of choice while writing? Depends on the time of day I get to write. In the morning, coffee, coffee and more coffee. (with Creme Brulee creamer!) Afternoon it's iced coffee. After school, it's Dr. Pepper. Night it's water. -When writin...
