| Description: | Adult Literary Agent at a reputed full-service literary agency seeks an intern for Spring/Summer 2016. Applicants should have a strong interest in book publishing and be savvy readers and strong writers who have office experience.

In addition, the intern will assist the existing support staff of the department, handle mailings, filing, and other day to day tasks.
