For our February meeting, our main speaker is literary agent Justin Nash.
What information do authors, agents and publishers need to maximise the chances of success in the journey to publication and beyond?
Justin Nash is a director and literary agent at the Kate Nash Literary Agency which opened its doors in 2009. He has been actively working at the Agency since 2017, becoming a director in 2018. He represents both fiction and non-fiction authors.
Justin has kindly agreed to judge the competition for this month. The results will be announced at the end of the meeting. If you’ve entered, make sure you attend as we like to applaud the winners in person.
Our guest speaker for the evening will be HWS member Francesco Sarti.
Francesco is an experienced creative writing teacher and author of poetry, short fiction and novels, published in both Italian and English. He is represented by Justin Nash from the Kate Nash Literary Agency, and with him he is working on his debut novel.
Join Francesco as he shares his unconventional journey into the writing world. He will talk about the key steps that helped him find a literary agent, so you can learn how you could apply them to your own creative pursuits.
This meeting is likely to be busy, so come along early to be sure of a seat.
The meeting will be Tuesday February 11th, at the Tower Arts Centre. Come along from 7:00pm. Talks start at 7:30pm. Members free, non-member tickets £10, students £2 (no advance booking, payment on entry).
