5 Keys to a Healthy Author-Agent Relationship

Author Bethany Griffin and agent Michael Bourret talk about the author-agent relationship.  They have worked together since 2010.

Their 5 keys to the Author–Agent Relationship are:

Openness

Trust

Clarity

Humor

Communication

Michael says If an agent makes an offer & what they see for your career is not what you see for yourself, maybe they’re not the right agent for you. 

You should trust your agent’s advice – on the project you’re writing, submissions,  and how the agent represents your work.

Bethany says Humor and communication are important with your agent.
