What question would you ask a literary agent
if you had one all tied up?

Well, this is your chance.

Because…

Ask a Literary Agent a Question About Anything

I’m a former book agent.

You can submit your question below.

And I actually want you to ask me your question.

I like talking about publishing.

And, I like helping authors.

In fact, I like it so much that I didn’t get upset once when an author
decided he would ask a literary agent (yours truly) a question
in the men’s room at a writers’ conference.

Not while I was washing
or drying my hands.

No…

I was literally…
using the restroom.

So, you might as well
ask me your question, too.

Really…

I’m happy to help,

Mark

Author Success Story: Nonfiction/Narrative Nonfiction  
Author Picture

"Berkley Books recently published my book in hardcover after Mark helped me get multiple agents interested in my work. I was able to speak with literary agents from top agencies such as Janklow & Nesbit, Trident Media, Anderson Lit, and Folio. I signed with Don Fehr at Trident Media and a short time later I had a publishing contract! Having Mark on your side is incredibly valuable." [Click here to see all Mark Malatesta reviews]
