BONUS EPISODE: #AskAgent with Cece Lyra

Comps and queries and slush piles, oh my! Get the answers to some burning publishing questions by literary agent Cecilia Lyra of P.S. Literary in this first instalment of #AskAgent on the podcast! Questions were sent via Twitter in a previous call out. During the Q&A, you'll hear Cece mention a couple of things to provide in the show notes. They are:

1. This quick read provides results of the Bowker Study that shows more adults are reading YA: https://www.shelf-awareness.com/issue.html?issue=1827#m17466

2. The name of the author who self-published, then traditionally published, then went back to self-publishing is K.A. Tucker, and you can catch her interview with Bianca Marais on The Shit No One Tells You About Writing podcast here: https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shit-no-one-tells-you-about-writing/id1530250126?i=1000499455239
