The end of the year is fast approaching, and we can now curl up by the fire and enjoy the memory of a wonderful Agent’s Day in the OC. Our guests included authors Marci Wessels and Marianne D. Wallace, and agents Lori Kilkelly of Rodeen Literary Management, Sean McCarthy of McCarthy Literary, Christa Heschke of McIntosh and Otis, Inc., and Charlie Olsen of Inkwell Literary. As a special treat, our illustrators and picture book authors enjoyed a session with Suzanne Cruise, Licensing Agent and President of Cruise Creative Licensing.
