Client Comments

Gail Vaz-Oxlade, Bestselling Author

"It has been a pleasure working with Curtis and his team. This man is a great negotiator. He is also extremely well respected in the industry. And he's smart! I'm glad to have him on my side."

Julianna Scott, Author of The Holders

"From the moment I sent my amazing agent, Carly Watters, the email telling her that I had a new book in the works, not only did she refrain from panicking at the fact that I had completely changed genres on her, but she immediately got behind The Holders and couldn't have been more supportive. I can't express how fortunate I feel to have her in my corner along with the rest of the PS Literary team who are nothing if not tireless advocates for each and every one of their authors."

Taylor Jenkins Reid, Author

"The one thing I will say, is that without Carly Watters of P.S. Literary, none of this would be possible. So if you are like me four months ago and are looking for a wonderful agent, query Carly."

Tommy Europe, Author of The 10-Pound Shred

"Working with Curtis and P.S. Literary Agency has been a wonderful experience. The fact that I'm a new author, Curtis took the time to take me through the steps, and put a killer proposal together. My first book is about to be published, and I look forward to a bright future. Much success to a great group!"

Marian Vere, Author

"It's difficult to find a person outside of one's own family who you know truly has your back. A person you can trust to be honest with you and tell you exactly what you need to know, not just what you want to hear. Over the past year and a half since signing with her, my agent has not only been an incredible sales woman, selling both books I have thrown at her, but has also been my counselor, my editor, my cheerleader, not to mention my most valued beta reader. But above anything else, she has been the most supportive and encouraging influence I could ever have hoped for. To have someone believe in your book is a truly wonderful thing, but to have someone who believes, not just in your books, but in your writing, is far, far greater. To the amazing Carly Watters of PS Literary, you are a dream, and you make the publishing universe one I am happy to be a part of!"

Pamela Beason, Author

"Curtis Russell is an enthusiastic advocate for my writing, and relentlessly explores all routes for sales. What more could you ask for in an agent?"

Gail Vaz-Oxlade, Bestselling Author of Never Too Late

"Once again I'd like to send Curtis Russell, my agent and provocateur, a huge hug for insisting that I start writing books again. Hey, dude, thanks for being so persistent."

Nattavudh (Nick) Powdthavee, Author

"As a new author, I have received tremendous help and advice from the P.S. Literary Agency in getting my manuscript polished and published. Thank you very much!"

Liz Bugg, Author of Yellow Vengeance

"My agent, Curtis Russell of PS Literary Agency, gave me invaluable feedback on my early drafts."

 Al J. Venter, Author

"I've been dealing with my agent Curtis Russell for several years, having come across to him from Curtis Brown in London. He placed my first book with an American publisher within months and since then has successfully handled four more titles on my behalf. Professionally P.S. Literary Agency is tough and fair and the company is a stickler for detail and the small print that tends to awe many scribblers, me included. Here's to the next bunch of titles Curtis..."

Tommy Europe, Author of The 10-Pound Shred

"To Curtis Russell, Nick Garrison, Kate Cassaday and the HarperCollins team, thank you for feelin' my vision and shaping an amazing book."

Gail Vaz-Oxlade, Bestselling Author of Debt-Free Forever

"Curtis Russell, agent extraordinaire, persisted and convinced me this was the right time to do a new book, and then found me a great publisher with which to work."

Nattavudh (Nick) Powdthavee, Author of The Happiness Equation

"My literary agent, Curtis Russell, has been an unfailing provider of support throughout the completion of this book, and I'd like to thank him personally for constantly reminding me that I really have an interesting story to tell."

David Tyreman, Author

"As a first time author I really wasn't sure what to expect when choosing and working with a literary agent. I realize I was fortunate that several agents showed interest in representing my book, however what caused me to choose Curtis Russell and P.S. Literary was the attention to detail and professionalism that Curtis provided. In a short space of time Curtis had several major publishers interested in working with me and helped me through the decision making process of picking the right contract. I highly recommend Curtis and the P.S. Literary Agency."

Pamela Beason, Author of Endangered

"I'd like to thank my agent, Curtis Russell, who has been a tireless advocate for my writing."

Thomas N. Tunstall, Author of Outsourcing and Management

"I would also like to thank Curtis Russell at P.S., who championed this project tirelessly."
