What Literary Agents Look for on the Offer Call
The offer call can be stressful for all parties involved, but literary agents Jessica Faust and James McGowan discuss what agents are looking for on the offer call so that you might be better prepared for the conversation. **** Jessica Faust’s love for books is what first brought her to open BookEnds Literary Agency.
