Agent Spotlight Updates
All agent spotlights and interviews have been updated as of 7/15/2020, and many have been reviewed by the agents. Look for them to be fully updated again in 2023.
Agent Spotlight: Chris Richman
Profile Removed 7/10/13.
Mr. Richman has left the publishing industry and is no longer a literary agent.
Casey, we don't know how you do it. This is another awesome post. It really helps send us in the right direction with the specifics about Chris' preferences, such as wanting twists. Thanks so much!
I love this feature of your blog. Now that I'm ready to query, I've been researching your past posts. What's funny is that I just queried Chris Richman last Friday - he's the first one I sent my query to. Sadly, my first 20 pages posted differently than I had copied them and they didn't double space. It looked awful, but I didn't catch it until I checked the 'sent' version. Oh, well. Hopefully he has good eyes!! LOL! :-)
I worked with Chris through two rounds of revisions and although he ultimately decided not to sign me it was a valuable experience and Chris was awesome to work with.
