About the Instructor
Caitlin McDonald
Caitlin McDonald is an agent at Donald Maass Literary Agency and has worked in the industry since 2011. She represents award-winning adult and young adult speculative fiction, primarily science-fiction, fantasy, horror, and related subgenres. Caitlin looks for diversity in all projects, and is most drawn to unique, evocative narratives and cross-genre works, with an emphasis on high-impact stories that have something powerful to say.
Previously she trained in non-fiction under industry titan Celeste Fine, and has extensive experience crafting pitches and proposals for successful titles in the cooking, health, how-to, pop culture, and psychology spaces. Though she no longer seeks these projects for her own list, she enjoys the chance to share her knowledge and aid non-fiction authors via meetings at the Manuscript Academy.
Zoom is recommended for video. Google Meet may require cameras off due to technical difficulty.
