Dear Agent â€“ Write the Letter That Sells Your Book
Expert, up-to-date advice from an authority on writing and publishing

Youâ€™ve written the best book you can and you believe there are readers for it, but how do you persuade an agent or publisher to take it on? The first thing they will see is your letter or email and that short document must sell your book, make it stand out from the crowd, make it (and you) desirable. Dear Agent contains detailed expert advice, covering the best structure for your letter, what to put in (and what to leave out), answers to the questions writers ask, and all the horrible mistakes to avoid. Make your book stand out for all the right reasons.

Note: Nicola Morgan usually focuses her advice on the UK market. However, the advice in Dear Agent, (and the companion book, Write a Great Synopsis - see below), will also be extremely useful for writers everywhere. The art of pitching a book has no boundaries! US writers have already given great feedback.

Dear Agent is the companion book to Write a Great Synopsis â€“ An Expert Guide. Literary agent, Carole Blake, said of Write a Great Synopsis: "It is a truly fabulous tool for authors... I think this book will alleviate so much of the stress that writers feel when approaching the moment when they must write a synopsis. Congratulations to Nicola Morgan: I will be recommending it to clients. The advice is pure gold." (This book is also suitable for US writers.)

Nicola Morgan has had around ninety books published, fiction and non-fiction, including best-sellers and award-winners. Because of the hard-nosed honesty of her respected and popular blog, Help! I Need a Publisher!, she has gained respect from agents and publishers and her advice is highly regarded.

Advance Review comments
â€œâ€¦ This is a tightly written, easy to follow, essential volume which cuts through all the nonsense and mystique about what you should/should not do when approaching agencies.â€ (Merric Davidson, Publisher of The New Writer magazine, and previously a top literary agent himself)

â€œbrilliant and so useful. â€¦ should be an important and vital addition to the library of any aspiring writer.â€ (Vanessa Harbour, writer and writing tutor)

"Witty and insightful without being preachy. It showed me what I was doing right, what I was doing wrong and what I could do about it....You'll laugh, you'll cringe and you'll definitely learn something." (Derek Thompson, writer and humorist)

"...cuts through the mysteries of publishing with crabbit common sense and helps us work that crucial bit more effectively. Dear Agent is the ideal complement to Write to Get Published and should be on every writerâ€™s e-shelf." (Jules Horne, writer and dramatist)

â€œAnd always remember Morganâ€™s Hierarchy of Obedience which â€˜puts the agent at least a three-inch heel above you, until youâ€™ve got a six-book deal, at which point you get to wield the heels.â€™ So true.â€ (Merric Davidson)

Popular blogger, Bookwitch, writing about Nicolaâ€™s work: â€œâ€¦ she writes the way I want toâ€¦She writes great childrenâ€™s novels, but itâ€™s Nicolaâ€™s non-fiction â€“ and her shoes â€“ that Iâ€™m willing to kill forâ€¦ There is not a thing missing. Nicola deals with it all in her â€“ how shall I put it? â€“ calling-a-spade-a-spade style.â€
