Questions for Agents

Alongside all the other interview series I’ve been quietly developing this Q&A series to get an idea of what an agent does and how they became an agent, along with a few more personal bookish questions to get a better feel of the person behind the title.

There may be more questions added in the future.

If you would like to be involved you can email me at bigbeardedbookseller@gmail.com

  1. How many years have you been an agent?
  2. How did you become an agent and what do you love about it?
  3. Are there any educational routes you feel that would be helpful in becoming an agent?
  4. Where are you based?
  5. What draws you to a project?
  6. What book do you wish you had worked with?
  7. Were you a big reader as a child, and if so what was your favourite book?
  8. What books have you sold recently?
  9. What genre do you normally work in?
  10. How many people work with you or at your agency?
  11. How can you be contacted? list of social media links and website if possible, thanks

Questions for Publishers

The ‘Publisher Profile’ feature is kicking off once again, there are already a few publishers who were part of this earlier and I’ll be updating and expanding their info first.

Each post will have contact information, some blurb, images, contact details, website, etc. I’ll be using public information for this, but if you want to be part of this you can get ahead of the crowd by answering the following questions:

Question selection

* When did you start publishing?
* What made you want to start an independent publisher?
* What genres do you specialise in?
* Where are you based?
* Do you have a submission window, if so when?
* What is your submission procedure?
* Who are you (team photo if possible)?
* What was your background in the book industry before this venture?
* Talk about some of your books if possible, upcoming, favourite?
* Some photos, please
* Website/Facebook/Instagram/Twitter and any other contact details please

Then send the answers and images to bigbeardedbookseller@gmail.com with the subject “Publisher Profile”.

Eventually each publisher on the list will have an expanded entry to make the list more searchable
