If you are looking for a
UK literary agent to represent you then you will want to check out this series of interviews with
6 leading agents in
Myslexia magazine.
Myslexia is an excellent resource – especially so for women writers.
If you are based in the
USA write for
children and/or young adults and are looking for an agent, then you'll want to check out
this series of excerpts from interviews with
107 literary agents, and lots of other useful notes and pointers, painstakingly assembled by Casey McCormick and Natalie Aguirre on their very informative blog,
Literary Rambles.
For future reference I'll put links to both series of interviews into the sidebar: UK Literary Agents Interviewed, and US Children and YA Literary Agents Interviewed.
I've added
another 10 links to the U.S. Literary Agents' Websites sidebar - which you'll find when you scroll through the lists - bringing the total to
395.
I also spent a fair chunk of time testing the links and updating or repairing links. However, if you do find any broken links please let me know.
There are still, surprisingly, a good many literary agents both in the USA and the UK who do not have a website or a blog and rely on sites like
Publishers' Marketplace,
Agent Query etc. to maintain a presence on the web.
As always, if you are planning on contacting any of those listed first check they are members of
AAR (though there may be a very good reason why they're not members; or they may be members but are not listed by AAR for some reason). Also, run a check on
Writer Beware,
Preditors & Editors and
Agent Research & Evaluation.
Good luck!
Sorry for not posting stuff as often as I should. Have been really very busy - proofreading and correcting and re-formatting both print and digital versions of a novel, visiting the UK, and researching the wonderful world of ebook creation, publishing and distribution. Fascinating stuff, and I'll probably report back on my findings at some point.
In the meantime, if you're interested in following developments around ebook distribution and sales then check out the inimitable J.A. Konrath's blog at
A Newbie's Guide to Publishing and
An E-publisher's Manifesto, the
Self-published Authors' Lounge, and, for an interesting UK perspective, Lexi Revellian's
blog.
All of which seems a strange introduction to announcing that I've added
another 5 links to the
U.S. Literary Agents' Websites sidebar and
another 5 links to the
Literary Agents' Blogs sidebar.
