Author, gag writer, and creator of the successful “Working Daze” comic, John shares his experience and irreverent point of view on writing cartoons, the publishing industry, and touching the “NASA obsessed little kid” in him (not in that creepy, inappropriate way). “First reader” at the successful Nelson Literary Agency in Denver, Colorado, Sara shares the agent’s perspective on queries, genre, the publishing industry, and what always sells.
