Updated Literary Agents!

Whether you write fiction or nonfiction for adults or children, literary agents are the gatekeepers of the book publishing industry that can help propel writing careers. A good agent can identify which projects are right for which editors, and they work to get the best terms for their writers. After all, agents work off commission; so the more their clients make the more they earn. Click to continue.
