Attendees:

“Last March I joined a hundred other men and women from the WNBA San Francisco Chapter at Sinbad’s Restaurant for its annual Meet the Agents event.  From the windows, views of the Bay were the blue of dreams, and expansive enough to calm the most nervous.  I won’t say I wasn’t a little jittery as I looked around the room, at the agents waiting. The hours were so learning-intensive and fun, and I called an agent I met, to whom I felt connected, and within a few days we were literary representative and client… some six months later, I signed the publisher’s contract.” -Mary Jo McConahay, WNBA member

"Thank you so much for organizing the Meet the Agents event last month.  Nervous as I was when I went in, I had a great time, and made some wonderful contacts.  I’m keeping my fingers crossed as I prepare submissions.
