Have you written a nonfiction book but you have no clue how to get your book published? Literary Agent Alia Hanna Habib will be here at the Dearborn Centennial Library on Thursday, March 12th at 6:30pm to talk about her new book Take It From Me: An Agent’s Guide to Building a Nonfiction Writing Career From Scratch.

 

Drawing on wisdom from her star-studded list of clients, including Hanif Abdurraqib, Judy Batalion, Merve Emre, Nikole Hannah-Jones, and Clint Smith, Habib provides context and clarity to each step of the publishing process, from the germination of a book idea to finding an agent to represent it, from crafting an engaging proposal to navigating the perils of publicity. 

 

Please let me know if you have any questions!
