Making The Perfect Pitch

I have just finished reading Making the Perfect Pitch, June 2004, Kalmbach Publishing Company, ISBN 0-87116-206-7. Katharine Sands, a successful literary agent with the Sara Jane Freymann Agency in New York, corrals 40 top agents and experts from CAA, Trident Media, Meredith G. Bernstein, Jane Dystel Literary Management, and more and gets them to tell what really excites them about pitches, query letters and proposals. "Making The Perfect Pitch" is well organized and the approach is unique. While it’s informative to have the expertise of one agent it’s invaluable to have the opinion of a number of different agents’. Ms. Sands brings a breadth of knowledge and experience to writers they desperately need and seldom receive. If you’re hunting for an agent, you need to know how to pitch and "Making The Perfect Pitch" gives you the ammunition to be dead on target.
