How I Found the Agency

Blame Mark Zuckerberg. After bucking the pull of ‘Facebook’ for years, I finally gave in, signed up, and what a pivotal decision that proved to be. As well as making it easy to spread the word about my books, products and performances, it also allows me to post questions on my profile, like the life-changing one that said “Help! Do you know a brilliant LITERARY AGENT?”. Lo and behold – within minutes, someone I’d recently connected with recommended Andrew. We quickly met, and I was immediately struck by his huge warmth, mammoth intelligence, phenomenal expertise and enormous passion for the medium. Plus, he never looked down on me for writing a blank book! And the rest, as they say - is a meeting of minds, a stimulating adventure and massive success... How wonderfully exciting...
