LOOKING FOR: MG, ADULT FICTION Jo Williamson has been in publishing for over 25 years. Having worked in Children’s books PR for Dorling Kindersley, HarperCollins and Orion, she started as an agent with Antony Harwood in 2008. She feels very privileged being with authors at the very start of their publishing journey and enjoys close working relationships with all her clients. From editorial help, general advice on the publishing world, guiding careers long-term and general cheerleading, she feels she has the perfect job. Although nothing is off limits and she loves being surprised by submissions. In middle grade children's fiction, Jo is particularly looking for books with heart, epic adventures with voice-led characters, and younger funny fiction with series potential. In adult fiction, page-turning Commercial Women’s and Book Club fiction are right up Jo's street, including psychological suspense, thriller, cosy crime and books that don’t quite fit the mould. Above all, she wants stories that linger long after the final page has been read. Jo is not the right fit for police procedurals. Jo would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document. (In addition to the paid sessions, Jo is kindly offering one free session for low income/underrepresented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting. The submission deadline is: Wednesday 16th April 2025

Welcome to Whine with HR! Our bi-monthly meet-up where we think about - and drink about - all things HR! Now, all of you in HR (or quite frankly, if you have ever been an employee anywhere) know that crazy things can happen in the workplace and that sometimes means you need an adult beverage to get you through. Well, we've got you covered! In Whine with HR, we start with the W-I-N-E of the week, where Trish and I test out new wines and share our thoughts. And then we move on to the W-H-I-N-E of the week, where we talk about a pressing HR topic. We change the topic each meet-up, so you never get bored (and Lord knows, there is ALWAYS something new to talk about). We back up our information with stats and research and we always offer best practices for the topic at hand. We also throw in a fun AMA episode here and there. Whine with HR used to be a podcast, but we wanted to make it more interactive and give you a chance to chime in and/or ask questions. So, grab your favorite beverage (loaded or unloaded) and join us!
