New Literary Agent Alert: Nicole Resciniti of The Seymour Agency

Literary agent alerts (like this one with Nicole Resciniti of The Seymour Agency) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building their client list.

About Nicole: After a lifetime of battling an addiction to books, Nicole Resciniti admitted she had a problem. Various jobs (SAT tutoring, high school Marine Biology teacher) couldn’t offset the obsession. Mary Sue Seymour offered an answer: become a literary agent. A consummate science geek and card-carrying Mensa member, Nicole is a member of AAR, ACFW, RWA, and Mensa. She holds degrees in biology, psychology, and behavioral neuroscience.

She is seeking: romance, mainstream suspense, thrillers, mysteries, YA and inspirational novels are welcome. Also science fiction/fantasy novel and action/adventure.
