What Is a Literary Agent?

A literary agent represents the business interests of writers and their works, serving as a strategic intermediary between authors—whether emerging or bestselling—and publishers, film producers, and theater producers.

Why Hire a Literary Agent?

A literary agent can be instrumental in securing lucrative book deals. While self-publishing as an indie author can generate income, a literary agent offers the best chance for a substantial advance from a major New York publisher. Most of the Big Five publishers don’t accept unsolicited manuscripts, particularly from first-time authors, and focus on books with bestseller potential. Agents have established contacts with publishing executives, and traditional publishers recognize and trust an agent’s client list. This professional network can significantly boost your chances of landing a lucrative deal and help your manuscript rise to the top of the competitive submission pile.

The Benefits of Hiring a Literary Agent

Your agent will be an essential guide in building your career. Since agents work on commission, they are truly invested in your success. Ideally, you and your agent form a partnership, working together to advance and promote your career every step of the way.

• Your agent will enable you to focus solely on writing. The business side of writing can be complex and mentally taxing, especially if you’re a first-time writer who is new to the industry. Agents can tackle the tricky stuff like negotiating foreign rights, subsidiary rights, and keeping track of royalty statements.

• Your agent can also deal with the logistics of planning a United States book tour and hiring a publicist for your completed work. Having a dedicated teammate to help with the business aspects of the industry can free you up to focus on what you do best—writing.

• Your agent can offer you constructive feedback and advice as to the current state of the writers’ markets. For example, if you’re considering writing something in a genre of fiction that is new to you—a thriller, a science-fiction epic, a young adult romance, or even a self-help book—a great agent will encourage you to follow your passion while also advising as to the market feasibility and editors’ appetites for certain genres.

• In a perfect world, your literary agent assists you during every step of your career, serving as a trusted adviser and honest confidant.
