YOU'LL LOVE THIS ONDEMAND WEBINAR IF:

  • You've finished your novel manuscript and are starting to consider submitting to agents
  • You're a nonfiction writer with a full proposal who needs to know the next steps to take

ABOUT THIS ONDEMAND WEBINAR:

Sometimes writing the book is the easy part! The road to finding an agent for your work can be difficult, frustrating, and laden with contradictory advice. Literary agent Kate McKean gives you a road map for finding not just ‘an agent' but rather the ‘right agent' for your work.

There are hundreds of literary agents in the U.S. alone; however, their information is not conveniently collated on one or two websites that you can easily search to find the perfect one for your work. Wouldn't that be nice if it were true! Because it isn't, you need to be armed with the tools and resources to find and decode the information across the web that will lead you to the agents looking for work just like yours,right now.

Finding an agent for your work is very important, but finding the ‘right agent' is mandatory if you wish to achieve your traditional publishing goals. This presentation discusses how and where to search for agents in your genre, how to tell if they are the right agent for you, and how to plan your submission. Kate also discusses how you determine whether your work is ready for submission in the first place.

Kate McKean covers the ever-important submission etiquette (so you don't ruin your chances before you even get started), Query Letters 101, and the many, many dos and don't of sharing your work with agents. She goes over what next steps you can take if you don't find your best agent match.

Finding the right agent is the first step (after finishing the book) on the road to meeting your publishing goals and should not be taken lightly. With the information from this presentation, you'll be well on your way!

Fit 2015 228xi even tho not exact shape as oem
The large clip that has the feet that point out in second position(ballet term, google it so you see what the orientation looks like) fits with much more ease than you’ll think. It won’t hook into its oem place but the top flat squared off part will hook to the interior roof of the that general area snuggly. Spent 1.5 hours trying to bend the smaller ones into a similar shape to oem and then it hit me. The bigger one would probably be large enough to catch the top of the bulb housing. Learn from me. Try the big one.
