Okay, there are A LOT of reasons why it’s nice to have an agent, but it’s especially nice to have one if you have “issues” with one of your publishers, and the publisher doesn’t respond to your issues. It’s even nicer if the agent you have is willing to handle these issues for you (and tell you you’re not crazy or unreasonable), even though she wasn’t involved in those contracts to begin with.
Why it’s nice to have an agent
I’m so glad you have that kind of agent.
Me too! I’m kind of a control freak, so for years I wondered whether I could really put my career in someone else’s hands, but I’m finding it’s more of a partnership than a surrender. She does the stuff I’m not good at or don’t like to do!
AMEN!
I’m so GLAD that’s working out for you!
