Faculty Interview: Dan Balow

April 20, 2022 by Dan Balow

Dan Balow is a literary agent with The Steve Laube Agency and acquisitions editor for CLC Publications.

What do you look for in the first few paragraphs of a manuscript?

A compelling start, pulling me through line by line. Put your best foot forward at the beginning. 

What do you listen for during a pitch at a conference?

A succinct explanation of who the writer is and why they write. A strong pitch is best explained in relatively few words. 

How can attendees prepare for an appointment with you at Write-to-Publish?

Think through how you want to explain your work. Relax. Be real.
