Last week I mentioned what a crazy year this has been and that hopefully soon I'd get to share some exciting news...
Well, I finally get to share that news because...
I'VE OFFICIALLY SIGNED WITH AN AGENT!!!
And that Super Agent is:
Lisa Grubka of Fletcher & Company
A little bit about Lisa direct from the agency's website:
Lisa Grubka spent a decade first at the William Morris Agency and then Foundry Literary + Media, before joining Fletcher and Co. in 2012.
Lisa works with a broad variety of authors, from debut novelists to Food Network stars, and has represented several New York Times bestsellers. She represents and is looking for both fiction (literary, upmarket women’s, and young adult) and non-fiction (narrative, food, science, and more). She takes a very hands-on approach in working with her authors, and is a thorough editor, ensuring the best possible proposal or manuscript. She works closely with her authors every step of the way, and takes pleasure in matchmaking her authors with the right publishing home.
She began her career at Farrar, Straus and Giroux and is a graduate of the University of Michigan.
I'm THRILLED to be working with her and can't wait to see where this road leads for the both of us!
I'll be sharing the full story on how I signed with my agent, tomorrow -- so stop by again! But now, I'm off to go celebrate...dinner with my husband this weekend, some shopping, and who knows what else!
