SOLD OUT! 121 with a Literary Agent - Liza DeBlock
Advertisement
Book in a 121 with a top literary agent to get feedback and advice on her manuscript - and who knows, the agent might want to represent you (just like what happened to Sam Parks last year).
Liza started in publishing as an assistant at Eccles Fisher Associates in 2018. Working for literary scouts provided a foundation in understanding the international book market. She moved into the world of literary agenting and learned from the brilliant Robert Caskie and Silé Edwards amongst others while working at a boutique agency. Whilst there, she honed her skills selling international rights for major Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling authors such as Richard Osman, Claire Douglas, Abigail Dean, Saara El-Arifi and Hannah Kaner.
Liza is looking for fiction and non-fiction with great, exciting writing, that has brought her on adventures, and taught her something new.
Liza is not looking for novellas or unfinished manuscripts, sci-fi, erotica, graphic novels, children’s books, middle grade, or poetry.
You must send a cover letter, synopsis and the first 3 chapters in one document to [email protected] before 31st March.
121s cost £70 for a 15-minute session where the agent will give you feedback on your words and takes place at the Marsham Court Hotel.
