Justin Wells tells writers how to land an agent at Jan. 6 workshop

UPDATE!!! 
Agent Justin Wells will join the group via Zoom technology. Alternately, Guild members can view the workshop from their own computers. Check the Member’s Room (www.stlwritersguild.org) for details.

As an added bonus, Justin is offering a giveaway for those in attendance. Two winners will receive a 30-minute consultation at a later date to discuss their book and ask more personalized questions relating to their goals as a writer and about the writing industry.

Finding that one agent who is the right fit, and then trying to get them to take you on, can be tough. At the St. Louis Writers Guild’s Jan. 6 workshop, literary agent Justin Wells will discuss a lot of things that you need to know in order to land your dream agent, and maintain a healthy relationship with that agent once you do. 

The Landing an Agent (query letters, relationships, and more!)” workshop will be held from 10 a.m. to noon in the Dogwood Room at The Lodge Des Peres, 1050 Des Peres Rd, St. Louis, MO 63131. Free to Guild members, $5 for nonmembers.

Justin is a Literary Agent with the Corvisiero Literary Agency. He will be graduating with a B.S. in Mass Communications with a focus in Public Relations. Justin loves being able to utilize his skills in public relations to assist the agency and his own clients through his work as a literary agent. His main focus is young adult, middle grade, and new adult, though he has been known to branch out and explore other books that catch his eye.
