TBP agent, Emily Barrett, talks to The Bookseller about transitioning from editor to agent

An article written by Emily, TBP’s newest agent, was published in The Bookseller this week! In the article, Emily dispels some agenting-related myths and discusses, how she’s found the jump from editor to agent, and the surprises along the way. A glimpse into what she says below:

“I didn’t know just how rewarding it would feel to be someone’s advocate. I also expected that I’d enjoy negotiating from this side of the fence but – not to scare the horses – it’s actually even more satisfying than I’d imagined: fighting on behalf of a person rather than a company, and having skin in the game to boot, is delicious.”

We couldn’t be more thrilled to have Emily here at TBP advocating for our brilliant clients and authors!
