Jayapriya Vasudevan from Jacaranda Press at Anita’s Attic for Season 5

As Season 5 of Anita’s Attic hit session 10, and the imminent end of the mentorship program looms, it is only natural that the writers start wondering what next? And it is to precisely answer this daunting question that can overwhelm and drown a writer’s confidence that we called in the marines.

Read that as Jayapriya Vasudevan, India’s first literary agent whose international agency Jacaranda Press first set up twenty years ago represents 90 writers across the globe.

Calm, collected and full of kindliness, Jayapriya gave the writers a comprehensive introduction to what an agent can and can’t do. And a realistic picture of the life and times of a manuscript submitted.

Thank you Jayapriya for being the bright light of hope you are!
