2: Landing a Book Deal

The first book I signed with my agent for didn't sell. It felt totally, undeniably horrible. But I shook the dust from my feet and wrote another, which ended up selling at auction in a 2-book deal. In this episode, I'm interviewing my agent + editor to learn what the process was like from their POV! They answer questions like what happens at an acquisitions meeting, what an auction feels like on the editor's end, and what parts of a contract are the most important to focus on.
