The agency is planning a longform video event (streamed & recorded to be posted). It'll be part free chat/part AMA. If there're topics you would like to hear our founder discuss or questions you'd like answered, comment below! Official date coming soon! #literaryagency #AMA

At the agency, we see many manuscripts & queries. Every now & then we'll offer some advice. But from today, we'll also start recommending resources. BLA earns no commission from said resources & is unaffiliated w/the creators, but we hope they'll be helpful! #writingresources #literaryagency

It's gray and rainy outside and the leaves are turning, and I couldn't be more excited to curl up with notoriously comforting read, Say Nothing, a recounting of The Troubles in Nothern Ireland after work

DNFing is one of those topics that periodically makes its rounds in the online book space. We at Betancourt Literary Agency are curious. Do you DNF books? What are the most common reasons you'll put a book down? Let us know!

There's 1 storytelling element writers often neglect: Interiority. It's not as sexy as dialogue/description, but it's equally foundational. With solid interiority, readers & agents can sink into your MC's mind.
How does good interiority show up in your ms?
