SOLD OUT! 17th December Louise Buckley #Agent121. Looking for: ADULT FICTION

5.0(1)

By I Am In Print

LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION Louise Buckley has worked in publishing for well over a decade. She was inspired to enter the publishing industry after completing an MA in Creative Writing and then spent a hugely enjoyable year working as a bookseller for Waterstones, wishing that she could have a hand in publishing books. After a year working at Dorling Kindersley, she then spent almost five years working in the commercial fiction division at Pan Macmillan, where she published a mix of commercial bestsellers and award-winning authors. Most recently, she was an Associate Literary Agent at Zeno Agency Ltd. As an agent she represented a roster of commercial and literary fiction, including Anne Griffin’s When All is Said, which spent five weeks at number one in Ireland and sold into 17 territories. She is delighted to be working with Hannah at Hannah Sheppard Literary Agency. Louise is looking for:- Literary and upmarket fiction that focusses on the underdog, the repressed, the suppressed. Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart, My Name is Leon by Kit de Waal or Boys Don’t Cry by FÍona Scarlett). Irish literary and book club fiction. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin. In commercial fiction she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christi Lefteri or The Midwife of Auschwitz by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved The Last List of Mabel Beaumont by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same ‘older person going on a journey’ category, a more recent The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry. Louise had a lot of fun publishing a ‘pet fiction’ novel as an editor (Molly and the Cat Café) and would love to find an author who can write an Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog. She has a soft spot for novels featuring time-travel or parallel universes, a ‘what if’ that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes or This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and Oona Out of Order by Martina Montimore. She also enjoys novels set in the real world but featuring a hefty dose of magic or the supernatural. They can be commercial or literary, present-day or historical. Think Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch, Threadneedle by Cari Thomas, A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness or The Gifts by Liz Hyder. And also cosy fantasy in the vein of Legends and Lattes or The House in the Cerulean Sea. Cosy or humorous crime. Recently, Louise absolutely loved Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans. When she was an editor Louise published the hit Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll and would love to represent incisive, intelligent suspense written by authors such as Jessica Knoll and Gillian Flynn, or something a little more subversive and blackly comic like My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite. More generally, Louise would also love to see novels with a disabled protagonist or someone (like myself) who is living with an invisible disability. As an ex-primary school teacher, she also warmly welcomes submissions from teachers, especially if the submission falls into one of the other categories she has listed. Following-on from this, she enjoys reading stories that follow a ‘beating the system’ narrative. Louise is NOT looking for: -romance -romantasy -epic, traditional fantasy -space opera -straightforward women’s fiction -children’s fiction of any kind -non-fiction Louise would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first three chapters or 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document. (In addition to the paid sessions, Louise is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented 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: Thursday 12 December 2024

SOLD OUT! 20th December Clare Wallace #Agent121. Looking for: PICTURE BOOKS, MG, YA, ADULT FICTION

By I Am In Print

LOOKING FOR: PICTURE BOOKS, MG, YA, ADULT FICTION Clare Wallace joined the Darley Anderson Agency in January 2011 and is building both the Darley Anderson Children’s Agency and the Darley Anderson Illustration Agency lists as well as taking on adult fiction for debut authors. Clare is particularly looking for funny chapter books for younger readers at the moment, as well as contemporary MG, YA fantasy, romance, and rom coms, especially with underrepresented protagonists. For picture books she has the widest taste, from daft to lyrical, rhyming to prose. As well as being busy with the children’s and illustration agencies, Clare is open to debut adult fiction submissions that could be described as book club, rom-com, romance, saga, reading group, fantasy or historical fiction. She often doesn’t know what she’s looking for until she finds it (although she is not the person for steampunk or space opera). She represents picture books, middle-grade, teenage and YA and debut adult fiction. The clients Clare represents include Perdita & Honor Cargill, Caroline Crowe, Tom Ellen, Martyn Ford, Stewart Foster, Olivia Hope, A M Howell, Polly Ho-Yen, Rachel Ip, Beth Reekles, J.P. Rose, Lindsay Galvin, Dave Rudden, Deirdre Sullivan and Efua Traoré. Whatever the age range, Clare loves a big hook, a lot of heart, and a standout voice. She loves to discover memorable new characters, bold and unique voices, strong concepts and gripping storytelling. This list gives a good indication of Clare's taste but if your submission doesn’t fit a description here, it doesn’t mean Clare doesn’t want to receive it. Clare would like you to send a covering letter, a one page synopsis and the first three chapters (Max 5000 words) of your manuscript. For picture books, please submit a covering letter and up to three completed texts. Please send EITHER picture books OR another genre, not both in one submission. (In addition to the paid sessions, Clare 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.

English Literature Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description English Literature Diploma  Introducing the English Literature Diploma, an expertly curated course designed to provide an extensive and comprehensive exploration of the fascinating world of English literature. This diploma offers a unique opportunity to delve into the captivating literary works and movements that have shaped the English-speaking world throughout history.  The course covers a wide range of literary periods, beginning with the Renaissance Period, when great minds such as Shakespeare, Marlowe, and Spenser flourished, bringing their timeless works to the forefront of the literary scene. As students progress through the English Literature Diploma, they will encounter the Age of Enlightenment, a time of intellectual and philosophical breakthroughs that challenged existing norms and paved the way for the development of modern society.  Students will then embark on a journey through the Romantic Movement, a period known for its embrace of imagination, emotion, and individualism. Here, they will study the works of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Keats, and many others, as they learn how these writers captured the spirit of their time through poetry and prose.  The Victorian Era, a time of rapid industrialisation and social change, will be the next focus of the English Literature Diploma. Students will examine the works of authors such as Dickens, the Brontë sisters, and George Eliot, gaining insight into how these literary giants depicted the joys, sorrows, and complexities of their age.  The course continues with an exploration of Modernism, a movement that sought to redefine literature and art by breaking away from traditional forms and experimenting with new styles and techniques. Students will study the ground-breaking works of writers like Virginia Woolf, James Joyce, and T.S. Eliot, as they revolutionised the literary landscape.  Postmodernism will be the next topic of study, a period that questioned the very nature of reality and embraced a sense of playfulness, irony, and intertextuality. The English Literature Diploma will guide students through the works of postmodern writers such as Samuel Beckett, Thomas Pynchon, and Angela Carter, who challenged conventional storytelling and pushed the boundaries of narrative form.  The course also incorporates a study of the Harlem Renaissance, an important cultural movement that celebrated the creative achievements of African American artists, writers, and musicians. Students will learn about the works of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and Countee Cullen, as they examine the ways in which these writers influenced the broader literary landscape.  A key component of the English Literature Diploma is its focus on Contemporary British Literature. Students will explore the works of authors such as Salman Rushdie, Ian McEwan, and Zadie Smith, who have contributed to the richness and diversity of the modern literary canon.  Furthermore, the course provides a comprehensive overview of American Literature, examining the works of authors from the colonial period to the present day. Students will explore the writings of Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and many more, as they learn about the unique qualities and historical context that shaped American literary culture.  Lastly, the English Literature Diploma places a strong emphasis on the study of Women Writers, recognising the significant contributions of female authors throughout history. Students will explore the works of trailblazers such as Jane Austen, Mary Shelley, and Sylvia Plath, as well as contemporary writers like Margaret Atwood and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.  In conclusion, the English Literature Diploma offers a comprehensive and engaging overview of the literary world, providing students with the skills and knowledge needed to appreciate, analyse, and enjoy the rich tapestry of English literature. Enrol now and embark on a literary adventure that will inspire and enlighten for years to come.  What you will learn  1:The Renaissance Period  2:The Age of Enlightenment  3:The Romantic Movement  4:The Victorian Era  5:Modernism  6:Postmodernism  7:The Harlem Renaissance  8:Contemporary British Literature  9:American Literature  10:Women Writers  Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.
