Conference Success Story: Member Jenny Martin Signs with Literary Agent
The May 12th meeting of the DFW Writers’ Workshop saw a large crowd that included two visitors and three new members.
In the biggest news of the night, Jenny Martin announced she has signed with Mary Kole of the Andrea Brown Literary Agency, Inc. What’s even better is that Jenny met Mary at the 2010 DFW Writers’ Conference, making this yet another success story for an event designed to connect authors with agents and editors.
In other news, Carolyn Williamson announced the addition of three new writer’s market books for the Workshop’s library. While these reference books may not be checked out, there are many others available for use by DFWWW members.
Finally, it’s rumored that 15 literary agents have already agreed to attend the 2011 DFW Writers’ Conference. With success stories like Jenny’s proving the value of the event, attendees will want to register early for the best chance to meet with one of next year’s agents.
