Episode 26: We're on a Boat! OR: The International Writer




The Manuscript Academy show

Summary: We talk with agent Kurestin Armada (P.S. Literary) and her client, Amy Schaefer, who not only got an offer of representation while in another country--but while on a boat near Papua New Guinea. Without wifi. Or phones. Just one radio. Many writers worry about whether they can possibly get an agent's attention, and sell books in the US, if they live abroad. For all of the writers out there, we hope this episode puts you at ease. If Kurestin and Amy can do it with a single sideband radio, an old Nokia, and a pile of SIM cards--you can, too.
