WRITING TIPS FROM BOOKENDS LITERARY
I have to hand it to the agents at BookEnds Literary. They offer expert writing advise for those who want to get published. When you watch their Youtube videos, you'll learn about querying, being represented, marketing and much more.
In this post for The Maggie Project, I'll present a short overview of one of their latest Youtube videos that centers on tips about writing. But first, let's get to know a little about BookEnds.
BookEnds was founded in 1999 by Jessica Faust and Jacky Sach. They wanted to represent books that they had fallen in love with and to help authors achieve their dreams.
This agency represents fiction and nonfiction for an adult audience. In fiction agents specialize in romance, mystery, suspense, thrillers, science fiction and fantasy, women’s fiction, historical fiction, literary fiction and upmarket fiction. They are also seeking nonfiction in the areas of memoirs, history, food, current affairs, business and career, parenting, pop culture, and general nonfiction.
BookEnds Jr, represents fiction and nonfiction for the young adult, middle grade and picture book markets.

Listed below are four writing tips from BookEnds, recorded on Youtube June 5, 2020:
- Give yourself time in between drafts and come back to your work with a fresh mind.
- Write from your synopsis and query before, during and after you write your manuscript.
- Know your specific audience so that you can meet their expectations.
- Write what you care about.
