In this repeat episode, Kate and Kristin talk with literary agent Sally Ekus. A lot has changed in Sally's professional life since we last had her on -- the Ekus Group is now part of the Jean V. Naggar Literary Agency, and Sally is a senior agent there. What hasn't changed is the great advice she gives in this episode for emerging cookbook writhers. We talk to Sally about her career path, what she brings to the table for her clients and peek into a day in her life. Sally shares how agents help careers, the key items in a query emails and the homework authors should do before reaching out to agents. Finally, she tells us her thoughts on proposal designs, where voice matters most and the one question she urges potential authors to ask themselves before getting started.Hosts: Kate Leahy + Andrea Nguyen + Molly Stevens + Kristin DonnellyEditor: Abby Cerquitella MentionsThe Ekus GroupInstagramWebsiteSubmission RequirementsSally EkusInstagramSelf Paced Course: How to Write a CookbookFacebook group: How to be a Cookbook AuthorAssociation of American Literary Agents Mentorship ProgramWomen's Media GroupThe Red Truck Bakery Farmhouse CookbookFirst Generation Visit the Everything Cookbooks Bookshop to purchase a copy of the books mentioned in the show
