Today I met with an agent to give a pitch for my new book. I had 15 minutes to tell him enough about the book so he could see if it is something he could find a publisher for. I had a one-page synopsis to leave with him, but he didn't take it. He did seem interested in the story and asked a few questions. At the end of the time, he gave me a company brochure and asked me to send a proposal by email. He said his readers would check it over, including the first three chapters, and they would let him know if he should read it.
The class with Davis Bunn was informative. It'll be continued tomorrow. He talked about various ways to plot a book. I learned he has completed a new Marc Royce book and I look forward to reading it.
I also attended a session on events. One instructor talked about bookstore signings and the other covered virtual events. I learned a few new techniques to try.
May God's favor be upon you as you share His precious love with others. May the Lord open doors for you and use your talents to bless others and to His Glory.
