My Manuscript Wish ListLizzie Poteet is an agent at The Seymour Agency. After several years at St Martin's Press/Macmillan working as an editor, she made the move out of NYC and editorial and to Nashville and agenting. A hopeless romantic, she's eternally grateful she found a way to channel her immense feelings about feelings into a legitimate job where swooning is considered a job skill. A spitfire from an early age, she once tried to write a series of book reports in high school on Nora Roberts, Linda Howard, and Julie Garwood. It did not go over well. Lizzie's addiction to romance only grew from there, which explains why she decided to study abroad at the University of St. Andrews in college. Just on the off chance she would fall back in time and meet her own warrior soul mate. Sadly, she didn’t and now lives in a yellow cottage with green shutters with her dogs, Mr. Darcy and Miss Dashwood, where she watches a lot of TV. You can follow her on Twitter @lizziepoteet Fun facts about me: Dog mom to Mr. Darcy and Miss Dashwood. Dreams of having her own home library some day. Drinks an insane amount of tea.
