I used to think that literary agents were primarily fixated on securing publishing deals, playing little part in the publicity process. Now, after over 15 years of living and breathing the book world, I've come to understand their role extends FAR BEYOND what I initially thought. Literary agents aren't just deal-makers but dedicated advocates who often stay involved long after the contract ink has dried. They commit deeply to their authors, advocating passionately and continuously for their success. From that first thrilling call where a deal is made to the long-term strategy meetings, literary agents are pivotal in navigating the complexities of book publishing. In my experience, this relationship often goes beyond securing a contract. Agents become career-long partners who deeply engage in all aspects of an author’s growth, including crucial publicity efforts. For instance, agents often participate in initial publicity discussions, asking insightful questions that authors might not think of. It’s not uncommon for them to be directly involved, making recommendations for publicity partners or even joining strategy calls. Agents like John Willig and Rita Rosenkranz frequently refer their authors to us at Smith Publicity, Inc. as their book launch approaches, emphasizing the importance of a robust publicity strategy. Agents continue to play a supportive role by staying updated on publicity progress, ensuring their authors get the attention they deserve. They know the industry well and can advocate for additional support when publishers’ efforts are lacking, suggesting outside help to maximize the book's success. Their involvement doesn’t just stop at being advisors; they are also sharp on ensuring the book’s commercial success, which often benefits both the author and them, thanks to their stakes in the book’s financial returns. Literary agents are more than just gatekeepers to publishing deals; they are indispensable allies in the journey of a book from manuscript to the hands of readers, continually working to ensure the book—and its author—succeeds. #marketing #author #publishing #marketingstrategy 

Exciting Announcement! After extensive research and thoughtful consideration, I am thrilled to announce my decision to self-publish my English novel. With gratitude for my experiences in the traditional publishing world, I translated my book and had the privilege of collaborating with the exceptional freelance editor, Margo LaPierre. This collaboration has resulted in an enriched and meticulously revised version of the novel. With my background in marketing communications, I am confident in navigating this new path independently. I am excited to share this new chapter with all of you and look forward to your feedback on my novel. Stay tuned for further updates! #SelfPublishing #NewBook #AuthorLife #BookAnnouncement
