Agent Necessities— Let’s Unpack
Agents can be your beloved work-wives. They can be enigmas you barely talk to. Antagonists. Or, not even in the picture.

Classes Meet Thursdays on Zoom for two hours: 10am PST / 12pm CST / 1pm EST
Agent Necessities - Master Class III:
Do I need an agent?
Do I need an agent before I approach a publisher? Any exceptions?
How do I get an agent? How long will that take?
What is the full spectrum of an agent’s work? Are they editors, too?
What happens if they don’t make a sale? What happens after a sale, how do we connect?
What if I want to change or leave an agency?
My agent is great but something has changed — how to finesse this?
The agent’s view: The clients they love, the clients they endure. Learn their side.
Specialized agents—all about them, why they’re important
Before class, I’ll ask you to brief me privately on your agent woes or wonders. I’ll create anonymous “examples” for the class, composites of what everyone has confided to me, so you’ll recognize your issues, without having to “decloak.” I’ll make sure you’re getting exactly what you’re seeking!
