Every now and then, I host a live #askagent session on YouTube and syndicate the audio here as a podcast! This is the recording of the Agent Office Hours on 3/25/22
AgentChat Live features casual chats with literary agents to help potential clients get to know them a little bit better. This episode features Sarah N. Fisk at Tobias Literary.
Thank you to Danny for hosting! His podcast is at: https://linktr.ee/theshapeofastarpodcast
For our final regular PubTalk Live, I have a special treat. Three literary agents will be answering all of your questions about book publishing contracts. Whether you're looking to publish in the future, with or without an agent, or are already in the publishing world, we'll help you understand the contracts you're signing.
