EVENT

How to Find a Literary Agent (Nonfiction)

June 08, 2025

📚 Overview

All nonfiction authors need to know how to write a book proposal. Whether you want to land a major publisher and need an agent, or you intend to submit directly to small- or medium-sized presses, you'll need a spotless book proposal that will have them clamoring to sign you.

During this one-day event, you’ll learn everything you need to know about querying as a nonfiction author, and hear directly from literary agents, editors, and authors in the industry.

If you have a great premise for a nonfiction book, join us for a day of presentations, panel discussions, and Q&As and learn how to turn your idea into a book deal.
