Find your dream agent and establish your writing career

Jane Finigan from leading literary agency Lutyens & Rubinstein and best selling author Claire Fuller (Bitter Orange, Swimming Lessons, Our Endless Numbered Days) talk about the special relationship between author and agent, how to find your own perfect match and how to make the most of the relationship in developing your writing career.

Claire, much loved guest tutor at our retreats, will share writing tips as well as practical suggestions for marketing yourself as a writer. She will also read from her new novel, Unsettled Ground, which is coming out in January 2021.

Hear from our Pitch Prize 2020 judge as to what she is looking for

If you are considering submitting to our Pitch Prize for the chance to win a one on one meeting with an agent, the session will be invaluable. Jane’s our Pitch Prize judge so you can get the inside track on what she’s looking for. And even if you aren’t planning on entering she will have lots of tips on agent submissions and how to make yours stand out in the slush pile.

There will be an opportunity to ask questions during the session so please come prepared with lots of questions for Jane and Claire.
