My new favourite podcast. I loved this episode. Francesca is wonderful and so was her advice. I wanted Tariq to ask what it was about Marco's writing that made her take him on or at least share that story. 😊

"Francesca Riccardi's insights are invaluable for aspiring authors! Hooking an agent can be a daunting task, but her expertise sheds light on the path to success. Avoiding pitfalls is just as important, and her guidance is a beacon for navigating the complex world of literary representation. Kudos to Francesca for sharing her wisdom!"

Love Francesca! I met her on an Agent-1-2-1 and she was fantastic. Really enjoyed the episode. It was great to hear her go into so much detail about submissions and the querying process.

Francesca’s port-a-pottymouth is awesome 😁

Enjoyable listen, thank you all. Appreciated! Fascinating how different agents' practices are from one another. One reads sample chapters and query/cover letter last. Another only the query letter, rarely the manuscript (unless on the fence) - the latter being Jessica Faust from what I recall her saying. Extremely insightful for us aspiring authors.

Thank you for these videos guys. Brilliant work. And incredibly helpful for aspiring authors. That being said, i wasn't a fan of Francesca's potty mouth and misandrist talk. Dear oh dear!
