Get Extensive Personal Feedback from Literary Agent Michael Mungiello

We just arranged to have an established literary agent offer consultations and in-depth feedback to authors of literary fiction (novels, short story collections), memoir, history, science, and journalism. Michael Mungiello is an agent with Inkwell management, where he regularly sells books to a wide variety of publishers.

This is a wonderful opportunity to learn directly from an established literary agent and get extensive feedback on your manuscript, query letter, and synopsis.

Here’s what Michael is offering:

  • Written feedback on the first 50 pages of your manuscript
  • Written feedback on your query letter and synopsis
  • A 30 minute personal Zoom meeting
  • A recording of a one hour Q&A session on publishing and working with an agent

You’ll be able to have a personal discussion with Michael about your project, get answers to your questions, and personal help honing your query letter and the first twenty pages, which are the most critical components of any submission to an agent. Michael insisted, as well, on offering feedback on an additional 30 pages. Why? Because establishing a good flow beyond the first 20 pages is critical to winning over an agent once they request a full manuscript.

Please keep in mind that this is intended to help you polish your submission packet, and learn from an industry professional, and is not designed to help you directly get published.

Keep in mind that Michael is comfortable offering feedback on literary fiction (novels, short story collections), memoir, history, science, and journalism.

Please note: Michael is only able to schedule a limited number of consults. If you are interested, I encourage you to sign up right away. The cost for this is $325.

I apologize in advance if all the slots have been taken.

If you have any questions, please email support@authorspublish.com

Sincerely,
