BCI Conference Publishing Appointments with Embolden Media Group

Are you attending the 2024 Black Christian Influencers Conference in Atlanta and know you are called to write?

Do you have a book idea you’ve been working on?

Have you been wanting an opportunity to meet with an agent or professional editor one-on-one?

Are you wondering if your book idea is even any good?

Throughout the BCI Conference, literary agent Jevon Bolden and literary agent assistant Elodie Leroy, will host one-on-one 15-minute publishing appointments (AKA pitch sessions) for attendees. (Jevon will also host a series of virtual appointments on May 14 and 16 for those who are unable to meet during the conference.) This session is an ideal opportunity for authors and writers, like you, at any stage of the writing and publishing process.

We will help you know if your idea is agent or publisher ready—and what type of publishing is right for you and how to go about pursuing it. We will give feedback on your book concept—from title, subtitle, and chapters to outlines. Come with any questions regarding your writing journey, and get the help and direction you need.


Here’s what one author said about her 15-minute meeting with us:

Nicole O. Salmon, pastor, speaker, and author

I didn’t even know what a literary agent was when I met Jevon. We connected via a conference I was speaking at and I took the risk and sent her a sample of what I had been working on. I booked the meeting with her. What should’ve been a 15-minute consultation turned into a conversation that felt like we had known each other for years.

I affectionately call her Pastor Jevon because she has truly pastored me through this writing experience. We did it, Jevon! My book baby is finally in the world and I want to thank you for believing in this body of work even more than myself at times.

Fifteen minutes will change your life!

—Nicole O. Salmon, The Purpose Coach and author of Courage and Confidence
