Hi, from a very nice agent!

Jennifer_Laughran · Sep 6, 2008

Hello! I am an associate agent at Andrea Brown Literary Agency. I rep kids and YA books, and I am always looking for ways to procrastina-- I mean, talk about and learn about the industry.

Happy to meet you, and I hope that I can answer questions, as well as get some knowledge from what seems like a very awesome forum!

Hi Jennifer, welcome to the AW forums . . . :Sun:

Good to have you and I'm sure all others agree, we look forward to your expert input.

You'll find that the writers here are very serious about their craft and always eager to learn. You'll also find that most apply what they learn. Plus, there's some darned nice people to get to know. Again,welcome aboard!

Hello Jennifer

Nice to meet you (frothing at mouth). I'm sorry I am coming through the medium as cat woman, but alas us newbies have to chew tinfoil for 50 posts (not good for my mercury amalgum fillings). We're not allowed our custom photo until we have jumped the sprinkler for a while. Should we writers start chewing on your boot laces now or later?

Hi Jennifer, from across the land and across the pond. As mentioned above, I'm sure you'll be kept busy around here!

Welcome to AW. Hope you enjoy your stay with us.

How do you like your popcorn?

Welcome, Jennifer!

If you're really a glutton for punishment, you could start your own "ask the agent" thread. They're immensely popular.

If you don't want peeled grapes, frond fans, and a constant barrage of annoying questions, you'd better mention it... we can be an overenthusiastic lot.

Either way, I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay here!

Welcome to our house, Jennifer.

Allow me to be the first to offer chocolate--oh, wait, you don't rep my genre! Gee, if you're going to make such a sad face, keep the chocolate. Enjoy it, even. It's never a good idea to make an agent sad or angry, right?

Maryn, tongue firmly in cheek, glad to meet you

Now that's a way to get attention. Welcome Agent Laughran.

Maybe I should dig up that middle-grade book I started writing eons ago and finish it...
