Monthly talks from one of Ireland's Top Agents


Into Print - with Jonathan Williams

OK, it's questionable whether Jonathan is the top agent in Ireland; it's a very short pile. Perhaps you'd rather sign with Marianne Gunne-O'Connor, in the hope of a million-Euro pay cheque but unquestionably, the man knows what he's talking about. Although he did suggest to a talented writer friend of mine that she go away and write non-fiction, for example a book about cakes. She flounced off.

Where: Irish Writers Centre, Dublin
When: Tuesday 28 October at 7 p.m.
Thursday 20 November at 7 p.m.
Tuesday 16 December at 7 p.m.

How much:€8 or season ticket @ €20 (for all 3 autumn presentations).
Places limited. Book early to avoid disappointment.

Into Print – autumn season

Starting in October, leading literary agent Jonathan Williams presents an exciting new monthly series of talks aimed specifically at aspiring writers. Each month he will provide indispensable advice and information to those who are looking to see their work into print. From choosing and dealing with agents, editors and publishing houses through to issues of presentation, publicity, and marketing one’s work, these unique presentations in the Irish Writers’ Centre will provide aspiring writers with expert insights into the world of letters and how to negotiate one’s way within it.
