I'm thrilled to report that I've just joined forces with another new agent, Marisa Corvisiero.
Marisa is an author and an attorney as well as an agent. She is the founder of The Corvisiero Law Practice, P.C., a boutique law firm in midtown New York City, where she practices Entertainment Law and Corporate Law among other areas. Marisa is currently being featured by the National Association of Professional Women. In the last few years Marisa has merged her passions for writing and the law into her entertainment law practice, and she is now representing several authors. Marisa is actively building her client list now. She has a facebook page and a LinkedIn network.
Marisa will be specializing in science fiction, fantasy, horror and romance, as well as some young adult and children's literature. In non-fiction, she is interested in seeing proposals for memoirs, how-to (in any industry), guides and tales about the legal practice, parenting, self-help, and mainstream science (no text books please)..
How to contact: Send your query and first two chapters (or full book for children’s books – illustrations are not necessary) to Marisa at marisa@lperkinsagency.com.
And come here again soon for a more detailed description of the kind of books Marisa is looking for, and the books that she wishes she sold.
Tell your writer friends there's a new agent in town!

I love the new look! The old format looked like Goth+Vampire, which made it difficult for me to read.
Thanks for the heads up! I entered her information into querytracker.net. :)
And good timing. I'll begin the query process of my fantasy novel in a month or so...
oooh thanks for the into..Makes me want to write something! :)
I love the new look for the blog. And that's a great photo of you, too.
Good luck to Marisa.
Great new look for the blog, love the picture!
Welcom to Marisa!!
Thanks for the information, and congrats on the new venture!
Congratulations to Marisa! Thank you, Lori for the info. I just queried Marisa with my middle grade sci-fi book...
Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome. I've already seen some of your names in my inbox. Its nice to put the faces together with the work. Return soon to see more info about the genres that I represent and the link to my soon to be posted blog.
All the best,
Marisa
Congrats to Marisa! Thanks for sharing I just sent her a query:) Sounds like a great agent in the making!
Congratulations Marisa. I'm very glad to see you there and to hear what kinds of things you're looking for. I just now tried to send you a query and first chapters, but the email address I copied and pasted from this blog bounced. I'll try again. Please email me with a different email address if this one is not working. Verlie at Verlie dot com

I'm definitely looking forward to see what types of YA books you're looking for.
Congrats Lori I believe she is going to fit in nicely with your group. Hello Marisa and welcome. Lori is a great person I can't wait to see what you will be looking for.

Hi Marisa,
As far as children's work goes, are you interested in author/illustrators ie: picture books?
Thanks,
Anna
I'm not quite ready for my first real novel to be looked at by an agent. >_> I've got an exciting story, I built a platform with my 2006 NaNoWriMo novel, and I've got a great critique circle. Until the rest of my story winds its way back to me though I'm not letting it get looked at by any other eyes. >_<
Congratulations Marisa! I'll look forward to hearing more about what kinds of manuscripts you are looking for.

Another agent addresses some of this author entitlement and/or arrogance.

But I'm sure you'll write to me anonymously and tell me you don't see it that way.
Congratulations, Marisa and best wishes for much success!
Hi Marisa! Congratulations for the new position and best of luck!
I want to share with you my new blog for children, it would be an honor if you pass by and say hello. I would love to hear your comments!
