Patricia introduced the speaker to agent Jill Marsal of Marsal Lyon. The speaker sent a six-page proposal for a Wiley project instead of a full manuscript, and Jill offered representation within hours that same night.

And so I spoke to Patricia, another author who was super helpful, who introduced me to her agent, Jill Marsal at Marsal Lyon. And on a Monday, we had a call at like 4 or 5 or maybe even 7 o'clock in the afternoon Copenhagen, because she's on the West Coast in the United States. I sent her over the 6 pages that I had written about the stuff that I wanted to do for Wiley, which is also unheard of. Normally they want a full manuscript. And Jill was like, this is great, I would love to represent you. So within the span of 4 or 5 hours on a Monday night, I now had a literary agent, which is crazy to think about.
