Now in its 28th year, Guide to Literary Agents is a writer's best resource for finding a literary agent who can represent their work to publishing houses, big and small. With different options in stores and on the Internet, trust the book that's sold more than 325,000 copies.

The Guide to Literary Agents 2019 is a writer's best resource for finding a literary agent who can represent their work to publishing houses, big and small. The days when a writer could deal directly with a large publisher are over. Literary agents represent writers and shepherd manuscripts to the right editor; and a good representative is the difference between a published book and a manuscript that never gets read.

In addition, agents have now taken on a new role for writers, in response to the changing landscape of publishing. Agents now act as editors, advocates, promoters, digital rights managers, and much more. GLA provides names and specialties for more than 750 individual agents around the United States and the world.

GLA includes more than 100 pages of original articles on finding the best agent to represent your work and how to seal the deal. The articles in this edition take a greater focus on getting the voice of the agent in this guide, with original articles from Carly Watters, Annie Hwang, and Kaitlyn Johnson, plus articles on Twitter Pitch Hashtags, today's hottest genres, and a roundtable of agents who are also authors.

Book Features:

  • Approximately 100 pages of instructional content
  • More than 750 literary agents detailed - with submission info
  • More than 100 writing conferences listed - so writers can see where agents will be and when.
