How I Found the Agency

I originally honed in on Andrew Lownie since he’s keen on the military genre but at the time, my book wasn't the right fit. However, he referred me to Creative Artists Agency in Hollywood for one of my projects, which opened very significant doors for me. That eventually resulted in me circling back to Andrew once I had the “right” project. His strong encouragement and guidance has been key in my producing the most compelling – and marketable – book possible.
