        Hello,

        I finished my first manuscript and I’m finally ready to start sending out to agents. However, finding an agent is beginning to feel like a daunting task. I wasn’t sure where to start… so, I thought I’d start here, by asking my favorite author.

        Any advice would be much appreciated!!

            Jamie, sorry I am so late reading your post. Real life intruded. I have had the same agent my entire career, because he has earned my trust and he will always go to bat for me. Other people I know have not been so lucky, and some are on their third agent or have decided to do their own agent work. It really helps to have an agent who is knowledgeable and honest. My agent is Joshua Bilmes, head of JABberwocky. He has several other agents on staff. You can certainly try there. I am not the best person to ask for advice since I am a dinosaur in the industry.
