Instructor:

Kate Mckean

In my MFA workshops at the University of Southern Mississippi, I was the one asking my fellow writers who's going to buy this? Who are you writing this for? That's when I knew I wanted to be a literary agent. I finished my degree ASAP and moved to New York to work in publishing.

I've been with the Howard Morhaim Literary Agency since 2006, where I've built a diverse client list from New York Times best selling internet sensations like I Can Has Cheezburger to beloved humorist and novelist Daniel M. Lavery to New York Times best selling YA horror writer Madeleine Roux and New York Times best selling fantasy writer Alix E. Harrow.

I was an adjunct professor at New York University in the School of Professional Studies, teaching about agents and publishing for over a decade. As a writer, I am represented by Michael Bourret at Dystel, Goderich, and Bourret. I write the newsletter Agents & Books.

I live in Brooklyn with my husband and kid and our many, many books.

Great Size and Comfort
Size: Extra Back Support (21-Inch), Color: Dark Grey
2 months after buying a different reading pillow I felt it was time to buy a different one based on the comfort and support. I found this one listed for a good price. After carefully looking through the listing, I bought the 21" size. On my first night of usage, I was already impressed with the comfort and support vs the reading pillow I had bought 2 months prior. I like how this one has nice support for my neck and head as I'm relaxing on my bed with my laptop and phone. The texture of the filling gives it a very nice combination of cushioning and firmness. The horizontal feature line in the center of the pillow is a nice feature for back and neck support thanks to it giving the pillow some flexibility. As for the arms, their length, width, height, and cushioning are very good for resting my arm while I'm using the wireless mouse with my laptop.

Book Reading Wife Approved
Size: Standard (18-Inch), Color: Sage Green
I purchased this for my wife who reads quite a bit and she absolutely loves it. She said it feels soft, is the right size for her, and makes book reading more comfortable for her. I call it a win.

Heaven sent
Size: Jumbo (25-Inch), Color: Dark Grey
My back suddenly decided to show me who's the boss. This reading pillow has been a God send! It is substantial without being too hard, soft enough to be comfortable without being too soft, absolutely no lumps! The outside cover is removable to allow for machine washing and is so soft to the touch. There is a handle on the back that makes it easy to move. This has allowed me to be able to sit upright, much appreciated!
