Thanks for bearing with me Robert, I'm getting crushed this time of year.
Here's some personal info on me:

 

Jason Yarn is a literary agent with Paradigm, one of the nation's top
entertainment agencies. After a stint in L.A. working in the intern-mines
for Miramax, he joined Writers and Artists as an assistant and transitioned
to Paradigm where he worked with authors like Warren Ellis, Denis Leary,
Steven Johnson, Aaron McGruder, John Dean and Daniel Mendelsohn. As an
agent, his clients include the New York Times Bestselling authors Dirk
Hayhurst, Jeff Gottesfeld, and Fred Van Lente, as well as the James Beard
Award Nominated Hank Shaw, IACP Award Nominated Jane Ziegelman, and debut
authors like K.M. Ruiz (MIND STORM), Mark Henshaw (ASSASSIN'S MACE) and Nate
Simpson (NONPLAYER). He has a diverse list and is currently seeking
narrative non-fiction and commercial middle-grade/YA/adult fiction in the
areas of thrillers/suspense, science fiction, fantasy, historical fiction,
and military/espionage.

 

Hope that helps. I'll be open to almost all questions from your group. Talk
to you on Sunday.
