Today is one of those writerly days I’ve dreamed about for, oh, say the last six and a half years…
Today, I signed with The Nash Agency, and I finally can say I have a literary agent.
The Nash Agency is owned and operated by Haylee Nash. I was lucky enough to have something to do with Haylee when she worked for Harlequin Australia when my debut book His Brand Of Beautiful was published by Harlequin Escape.
Haylee has published some of Australia’s highest-selling books from authors such as Rachael Johns, Fiona McCallum, Sally Hepworth and Kylie Scott, and has worked for Pan Macmillan Australia, Harlequin Enterprises Australia and Booktopia.
The Nash Agency will represent my contemporary fiction with a book called ASHES, and also my future rural and contemporary romance books, including the Chalk Hill series I’m working on now.
Thank you for your faith, Haylee! I’ll be doing everything I can to do you proud.

Congratulations, Lily, it couldn’t have happened to a nicer or more talented writer. And while I think you’re lucky, I think Haylee is equally lucky to have discovered you! x

I have had a little time now to get used to it Marie but yes – it’s a very big smile 🙂 I am looking forward to when I meet the LollyGs too. Can’t be next Friday for me, but I hope it’s somewhere soon. Might be Ms Louise’s book launch! xx
