Agent Friday: Dystel & Goderich Literary Management

Continuing in our weekly focus on agents who blog, we have not one, but nine agents who share a single blog. All are from Dystel & Goderich Literary Management. The staff take turns blogging about publishing, querying, marketing, and all the other topics we as writers need to learn about.

Some of my favorite posts on their blog are here:

On Rejection

Wisdom from writing teacher James N. Frey (whose book will be reviewed next week)

Tips on Dialogue

Misconceptions in the author/agent relationship

Advice on Pitching

Marketing and Facebook

And a couple of interviews:

Jane Dystel on Book Publishing in the Next Ten Years.

Jane Dystel on Dear Author.

The agency has a nice list of Author's Resources, a montly newsletter,  and a page of Q&A with their authors. Check out their recent and forthcoming titles here.

And for those in the Pikes Peak area, Pikes Peak Writers is hosting a free three-hour workshop on Saturday, May 22nd. The class is called Dismembering the Bestseller, and is taught by novelist Bonnie Ramthun. For more information, click here.
