Demystifying Literary Agents

With Jenny Brown, agent and director of Jenny Brown Associates. Jenny Brown set up her literary agency in Edinburgh in 2002 and can draw on her extensive experience of literature and the publishing industry to explain what agents do, and how they can make a vital difference to a writer’s career. She was also able to offer tips on how best to submit work to agents and make your work stand out from the submissions. This event was part of Get Your Work Published, a one-day workshop held on 26 November 2011 at the National Glass Centre, Sunderland and organised by New Writing North for writers in the north east of England.
