Listen Later

Do you want to break into the publishing industry? 

Many authors have questions about how to traditionally publish a book and how to find a literary agent who can help with that process. This week, I caught up with Jeff Herman, who's been working in the industry for 25-plus years.

He runs a literary agency in the United States and has published over 1,000 different books. So, he has a wide variety of experience across different genres or niches.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • how to land a literary agent
  • and what you should put in your pitch
  • the benefits of creating a back catalog of book
