Sorry I missed last week. I was on a plane flying to Colorado. Too busy to blog. (sigh) My heroes for the week are a result of the Pikes Peak Writer's Conference.
In no particular order...
~Kate Harrison (Dial Books) Super cute and sweet editor that helped me make my first page better.
~Natanya Wheeler (Lowenstein-Yost Agency) Quiet gal but don't be fooled. I had a pitch appointment with her and she was uber nice and professional. She made my first pitch experience a pleasant one. (plus she wears cute boots! :))
~Kevan Lyon (Marsal Lyon Literary Agency) I sat with her at lunch and she taught me about the Kindle. Very friendly and easy to talk to. She gives off that sweet but professional vibe.
~Ginger Clark (Curtis Brown) Poor thing was sick as a dog but she still endured questions at our dinner table. Not only did she give me the scoop on one of my favorite authors but we are plotting a way to make Cheetos cure cancer.
CHEERS TO MY HEROINES. I'M RAISING MY CHOCOLATE MARTINI IN A TOAST TO YOU!

Mmmm.... chocolate martini.
ReplyDeleteThe Melting Pot makes the best chocolate martinis ever.
So did meeting these agents change your dream agent list?
Can I help you make some extra? :)
ReplyDeleteI could use one of those right now. 3 rejection letters yesterday. *Liz
