Conferences

We believe conferences are one of the best ways for writers to meet agents and editors and get feedback on their writing and book ideas. We attend and support a number of conferences each year and encourage aspiring and previously published authors to attend writers conferences to (a) gain professional opinions on their proposal(s), (b) learn to take critiques from various industry representatives, and (c) understand and work with the publishing industry rather than trying to guess or go around those who are making decisions about what’s getting published.

The following conferences are ones we recommend (a) because we know the staff of each and (b) believe they are among the best conferences for writers to mature and improve their writing and connect with publishing professionals who are in a position to help them.

Blythe is more than a literary agent. She is a friend who comes along side passionate people and helps them get their message out there. I love her heart and down to earth personality that stays in tune with her authors in real life. If you are looking for a literary agent who will not only get the job done and do it well, but also pray for you, weep with you, and laugh with you, Blythe is the one.

Blythe and Stephanie are exactly the type of advocates I prayed to have in my corner. I've found them to be educational, helpful, strategic, and Holy Spirit led in the guidance and support they offer to me as an author. Having Blythe as my agent is truly a gift!

I so appreciate Blythe's ability to think creatively about the publishing process. When others seem restrained by the rules of the industry, Blythe believes in me as an author enough to try new things. That's the type of person I want to work with.
