Ernie Chiara is a writer and literary agent, representing award-winning, bestselling, and critically acclaimed authors at Fuse Literary for the past five years. He's been featured in Writer's Digest's Annual Agent Roundup and is a faculty member of Writer's Digest University's online courses. When his nose isn't buried in a manuscript, you can find him browsing the stacks at his local indie bookstore for far too long or failing miserably to get his kids to laugh at his jokes.
