Literary Manager|Roumen Literary Management (The Netherlands)

Michaël Roumen

As a manager in the Roumen Literary Management, he helps his authors visualize and realize their literary ambitions. In other words: developing a long-term strategy and then representing their interests to the outside world, creating as much time and ‘headspace’ for them to focus on the creative process.

Besides literature, he has worked in film, painting, photography, heritage, theatre and ArtScience. There is a lot to learn from other disciplines and there are a lot of opportunities in cross-overs. Roumen has managed many international projects and will take any opportunity to further broaden his scope across borders.
