The agent/no agent...Thanks for your thoughts, EA! The agent/no agent topic is pretty hot in groups of people who do picture books, and it is good to hear some perspective from the other side so to speak. <BR/><BR/>Seems like if someone feels confident about handling the money and contract issues, the answer boils down to personal work style and individual personalities, and how much steering they may want from a third party in career direction. Would I be correct in thinking you didn't seem like you preferred one over the other in the abstract, but only on a case by case basis?<BR/><BR/>Also, thanks in general for this blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986595816238301046.post-16300312101117968782007-08-15T12:07:00.000-04:002007-08-15T12:07:00.000-04:00Emay, this can happen when the author has worked w...Emay, this can happen when the author has worked with the publisher (and yes, they can be trade houses). If there's already a relationship and not much money at stake, it might not be really worth the agent's time to get involved. <BR/><BR/>Some agents are similarly hands-off when it comes to work-for-hire trade projects (i.e., writing for a series, etc.).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7986595816238301046.post-53334693659921245522007-08-15T11:22:00.000-04:002007-08-15T11:22:00.000-04:00Really?

An advance from places like that is pretty small to begin with, and an agent won't be able to make it any bigger. Whatever extra $$ the agent manages to negotiate will probably just go to her commission, and if she can't negotiate extra, you'll have less. I know a few authors who deal directly with smaller houses and who save their agents for the publishers with deeper pockets.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
