Today’s post is a new list of agents who are accepting queries. A preview of last month’s can be accessed here. 📗
A few items before this month’s list:
On Sunday, June 23, 2 PM PT/5 PM ET, for monthly and annual subscribers and founding members, I’m hosting a Bookish Office Hour/AMA-L (Ask Me Anything-Literary) Zoom meet-up—e.g. applying for artists’ residencies; submitting work to literary journals, contests, and independent publishers; writers’ conferences—to attend or not to attend?; querying agents; starting a community reading series; the low-residency MFA v. the full- or part-time traditional MFA; forming a writers’ group, etc.
Please RSVP by replying to this email, and I’ll send you the Zoom link.
Bookish subscriptions are currently 20% off.
Registration for the Northwestern Summer Writers Conference is now open. It’s entirely online, and I’ll be teaching a craft class on July 20, 3:30 PM CT, on flash fiction. More info and the full schedule can be accessed here.
