Can a Literary Agent Effectively Represent Clients and Hold Down a Writing Career of Their Own

Saturday, December 19, 2009 starting at 11:00 a.m. (EST) on “Off The Shelf Radio” (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/Denise-Turney-) Denise Turney will sit down with Maxine Thompson and talk about one of the most important connections writers can make to gain a six-figure book deal. The two literary dynamos will also carve away myth and assumption and discuss whether or not authors actually need the services of a literary agent. Listeners who tune into the one-hour feature interview will be updated on current trends in the book industry that impact bookstores, libraries, writers and individual book buyers. “Off The Shelf” listeners will also come away equipped with the insight and know-how to negotiate for the best book deals and spot a reputable publisher, printer, editor and literary agent.
