Missing Miss Snark? These agent blogs are worth reading, kids.

For those of you who are jonesing for the late lamented Miss Snark (the blog, not the person; she and her dog are alive and well, thank you very much!), I suggest you explore the following:

  • The Rejector: An anonymous literary agency assistant gives some helpful advice and makes some astute observations about the book biz.
  • BookEnds, LLC: A blog maintained primarily by Jessica Faust at the agency of the same name. Good stuff here.
  • Nathan Bransford: This self-titled blog is maintained by an agent at the San Francisco office of Curtis Brown. Ltd. Again, useful information about getting published and the book biz in general.
  • Lyons Literary, LLC: Jonathan Lyons maintains this blog. More good info here.
  • Lit Agent X: Rachel Vater (who just moved to Folio Literary Management) has been been maintaining this blog for quite some time. She slowed down a bit in posting when she first moved to Folio – hey, everyone needs time to settle in, right? But it looks like she’s back. Some really helpful stuff here.
