A Conversation for Talent Agencies
Agenting in other fields
Eric M. Cherry Started conversation May 12, 2003
A fine piece; well done. Have you a similar survey of agenting in other fields -- say, writing outside of the theater/movie industry?
You mentioned that the contract is usually verbal, but I've seen the opposite in most cases for novelists. I am aware of at least one agent working with short fiction on a verbal agreement, but even that might change as the markets grow.
