Resource Thursdays: Janet Reid and BookEnds, LLC

May 7th, 2009

One of the wonderful things about the online community in the writing world is that people are all about sharing their blog love.  Find one site you like and it will usually list twelve more, and those twelve will each list twelve more, and so on.  No wonder they call it a web!

Yesterday I visited the website of Janet Reid, Literary Agent, and from her blog I stumbled upon the blog of Bookends, LLC – A Literary Agency.  I toggled between the two, reading more than I should have given the amount of things I need to get done.  Besides the fact that both blogs are from literary agents, they also share a wealth of knowledge about the publishing world from an insider’s point of view.  What’s so encouraging is that there are industry professionals out there who are so excited about what they do that it jumps off the page.  They want to help all the writers out there, not only in crafting the best work possible, but also in coming across as professionals.  In the end this yields a more polished writer, meaning a market with the highest standards. Though these agents don’t specialize in the children’s market, the advice they give spans the whole writing market.  Educational and entertaining all at once!
