Hi all –
Found a great interview with literary agent Donald Maass over on Writer Unboxed. Maass and the agents at his Donald Maass Literary Agency represent some amazing clients, including Karl Schroeder, Jack Whyte, Jay Lake, Nalo Hopkinson, Anne Bishop, Elizabeth Bear and, of course, WOTF XXIII’s own Jeff Carlson.
Maass’ book, Writing the Breakout Novel, is actually already on my ‘how to write a novel’ reading list (along with William Goldman’s Adventures in the Screen Trade–recommended to me by WOTF judge Sean Williams–and Albert Zuckerman’s Writing the Blockbuster Novel–recommended to me by WOTF judge Dave Wolverton)
Part One is here, and Part Two is here.
