Today we virtually sat down for a chat with literary agent Mariah Nichols. Mariah has a great passion for storytelling and the publishing industry. With a BS degree in Business, she wanted to apply her degree towards the world of books. After interning at Howland Literary, she transitioned to the role as a reader and in-house editor for the D4EO Literary Agency, working with Bob Diforio in all aspects of the business, with the intention of being named a D4EO literary agent.
CM: Welcome, Mariah! Let’s start with a fun fact about you.
Mariah: I actually hated to read as a kid. I would avoid it at all costs, until I stumbled upon the Junie B. Jones books by Barbara Park. Totally changed my view on literature and the love for books grew from there.
