  • It’s Official: The Chat Is A Go-Go!

    Posted on June 18th, 2008 jean No comments

    Join me, the AQ Crew, other writers and literary agent Tina Wexler of ICM on June 26th at 7pm Eastern time on the Agent Query Connect website. Tina will graciously be answering questions and I will be graciously moderating the chat. Pretty cool, eh? Best part: it’s totally free! (We only ask for your soul and you don’t need that anyway!)

     

    Here is a bit about Tina blatantly taken from the AQ site:

    “Tina Wexler is an agent at ICM, representing writers in both the children’s and adult marketplace. Prior to joining ICM, she was with the Ellen Levine Literary Agency/Trident Media and the Karpfinger Agency. She is from southern Maine, holds an MFA in poetry, and lives in Brooklyn, NY with her husband.”

    What exactly is she looking for?

    “On the adult side, I am looking to acquire narrative nonfiction and up-market commercial fiction. I’m particularly interested in popular science, food (not cookbooks), pop culture, memoir, religion, art history, women’s issues (however defined), and modernized retellings of popular myths and legends. On the children’s side, I’m interested in young adult fiction and middle grade fiction. I love mysteries, adventure stories with boy appeal, coming of age stories, tall tales, and paranormal fiction. Specifically, I am looking for a witty story about an astrophysicist who has troubles finding her Mr. Right–I think his name should start with an ‘M’.”

    Okay, you caught me, I added that last sentence.

    Come join us online on Thursday June 26th, or visit the post afterwards–I’ve been told the transcript from the chat will be available. Does it get any better than this?
