What to Expect From Your Agent


In this talk we'll discuss what to expect from your agent and how to develop and maintain a lasting and productive relationship. What are the best questions to ask before committing to an agent? What role does an agent play in your career? To what degree does your agent participate in edits, sales, and publicity? We'll explore empowering communication strategies as well as how to get the most out of your author-agent relationship.

Lecture replays are available after the free trial ends. To end your trial early, email brooke@inkedvoices.com .
