Agent Laurie McLean today announced the sale of the first book under the agency’s new name: Fuse Literary.
*confetti cannon explodes*
Laurie sold husband-and-wife clients Tee Morris & Pip Ballantine’s THE AUTHOR’S GUIDE TO SOCIAL MEDIA to Cris Freese at Writers Digest Books (part of F+W Media) for a nice advance. The book is slated to debut in Fall 2015.
Tee is a steampunk and fantasy author and the Digital Content Specialist (aka social media director) at Stratford University. He’s been a pioneer in social media since the beginning. Philippa “Pip” Ballantine is a well-known award-winning fantasy author who uses social media like a ninja to promote her books and her brand. Together they are going to give authors a fantastic amount of specific social media tips and techniques. Their second business, the One Stop Writer Shop, will also blog about new social media developments.
Here’s the text of the Publishers Marketplace deal announcement:
