Ever think of getting an agent? Considering changing your representation? If so, this specially scheduled May agents panel is just right for you!

Our agent speakers will reveal what impresses them, as well as what turns them off. What are the winning qualities of those crucial query letters? What should you say during early conversations with agencies? How do you determine which agent is right for you in the first place? What are agents looking for today? We’ll also consider other aspects of the changing marketplace as well as cutting-edge parts of contracts.

In addition, a media attorney will alert you to contract provisions which should be avoided. Agenting for both book publishing and TV/film writing will be addressed.

• Paul Levine, Paul S. Levine Literary Agency
• Jenoyne Adams, Levine Greenberg Literary Agency
• Mark Pavlovich, Marian Berzon Talent Agency
