Pitching an Agent: Lori Perkins Agency

This journalist-turned-author-turned-agent is a self-identified purveyor of “feminist smut,” writes Rachel Kramer Bussel. “Writing the Latino Gone With the Wind shoots you straight to the top of her slush pile.” Also welcome are vampire novels, fantasy, sports, pop fiction and women’s erotica. No reguarl romance, Westerns, non-quirky mysteries, children’s books, plays, screenplays, articles and short stories. Pitch via a one-page emailed query (no attachments).

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion's Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook's Morin Oluwole, and bitly's Tim Devane. Register now.
