This week, Liz & Ariel chat with Morgan Strehlow, an up & coming literary agent who is actively looking for authors! We talk about her unique background in sports, ghostwriting book proposals and manuscripts, and now representing other authors in their search to be published. Morgan loves working with hungry authors – partly because she’s a hungry agent herself! Hungry agents (and editors) are aspiring to bigger things and are looking for the yet-to-be-discovered, talented writers who will help boost their careers as well. They’re looking for authors they believe they can sell – even if they have small to no platforms. Listen for more about what Morgan’s looking for in an author!

Morgan Strehlow is an associate literary agent at The Bindery Agency, where she represents both fiction and non-fiction authors. After spending the first decade of her career as a communication strategist in the sports industry, Morgan pivoted into publishing as a freelance writer, literary editor, creative collaborator, and certified book coach. Morgan lives in Central Pennsylvania with her husband and son. You can connect with Morgan through her Substack newsletter, Writing Is A Team Sport, at morganstrehlow.substack.com.
