Rebecca Carter launches ‘Rebecca Carter Literary’
The Bookseller announces the launch of Rebecca Carter Literary.
The new agency, which is already up and running, is working in collaboration with PEW Literary in Soho, London, for contracts, accounting and translation rights.
Rebecca Carter said: “I have been privileged to spend 10 years at Janklow & Nesbit, sharing the company of some of the most skilled agents in the business. I have always longed, though, to embark on a venture of my own. I am excited to be in a position now to deploy my publishing wisdom and experience in a start-up agency that will reflect my values of independent-thinking, innovation and internationalism.”
She continued that “deep care and attention” to the writing of her authors will be “at the heart of the new agency”, which is part of what she says makes an alliance with Patrick Walsh’s PEW Literary “so perfect, because I know we share the same outlook".
