You will get a Tips and Typos section about a topic and finally an interview with one of my special guests. You will still be getting all of those things, but today, they will all be related to Brand Gamblin.

JR is from San Diego where the con is being held and we both though it would […]

I follow a number of people on Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus. Publishers, Editors, a bunch of authors and even a couple agents. I’ve also managed to get people from each of those categories on the show. Well, almost all of them. I’ve never had an actual agent on the show.

I hope you enjoy the show. Show Notes 00:00 — Opening – Get Published Episode 68 – What Agents Bring to the Table with Amy Boggs Everything has to start somewhere and […]
