As an intern at a literary agency, I think it would be criminal not to write a post about what I’ve learned regarding the whos and the whats that are looked for by agents. A month and a half as an undergraduate intern may not have given me enough experience to do this for a living, but it has certainly taught me a bit about what agents look for in your average submission. So, to all of the authors that aspire to publish books in a non-academic setting, I present to you four aspects of a submission that an agent will likely look for, and at, right away.
