Tomorrow, February 9 at 8:00 pm ET, join agent Jessica Watterson for a FREE workshop to explore how your characters exist in the romantic realm–their meet-cutes, desires, loves–and how this affects them in their everyday lives on the page.
With wit, humor, and a lot of laughter, this workshop will explore how these seemingly small details make meaning in the greater world you’re creating.
This workshop is FREE and open to all writers of all genres.
We recommend (but do not require!) that you bring a pen, paper, and the beverage of your choice.
Hope to see you there!
MEET JESSICA WATTERSON
Jessica has been with the Sandra Dijkstra Literary Agency since 2013.
A graduate of the University of California at Irvine, Jessica has immersed herself in books and literature from the time she could first read. While in college, she started an indie review blog that featured author interviews and reviewed several self-published books that eventually ended up on the New York Times Best Seller list.
Jessica is always on the hunt for new and diverse projects and is most interested in all genres of romance. She’s drawn to fun, fresh voices, and character-driven stories that keep a reader turning the page needing to know what happens next. Independent heroines are a must, in addition to well-realized heroes who aren’t alpha-holes. Some of her favorite authors include Kristen Ashley, Jennifer Armentrout, Jeaniene Frost, Amy Harmon, and Colleen Hoover.
She also loves Women’s Fiction that concerns itself with elements of life that can greatly change one’s perspective and outlook on cultures and experiences.
Jessica is also open to select Cozy Mysteries that feature fun and independent heroines that can take what life throws at them with aplumb and a bit of humor.
On the YA side, she is looking for just about anything in the contemporary sphere, and of course a bit of romance thrown in is never a bad thing in her opinion.
She is also interested in select author illustrated picture books that capture the fun and joy of reading between adults and children.
