Jessica is a very gifted communicator and has been researching and assisting with acquisitions for the last few months. She joins The Blythe Daniel Agency, Inc. as a Marketing and Literary Agent. She recently acquired the project we are working on now with abortion survivor Claire Culwell, whose story is one of three stories that the movie October Baby is based upon. Jessica is acquiring and representing adult fiction, young adult fiction,and some non-fiction.
I know you will really enjoy working with her. She brings a lot of creative energy and innovative thinking. I have been very impressed with her skills in acquisitions and marketing and she will continue to help us build and launch authors through our literary and marketing efforts.

Dear Jessica:

Dear Jessica~
My name is Toni (TJ) Martini and I am a Christian author with five published books to my credit (one non-fiction, one fiction, and three based on true stories). I am currently looking for an agent who can help me to spread the Word of Jesus Christ to the lost people in this world. My books have reached a few, but I know God wants more from me than that. My heartfelt hope and prayer is that you would give me a chance to show you what I can offer as an author and child of God and, in return, you could find in your heart to help me go farther, for we know God is able and, if we trust Him, He will show us the Way. I would be so honored if you could get back to me at your earliest convenience and to send you any information that you need.
Till then, be of Good cheer.
Toni (TJ) Martini
