This course provides a road map for students who want to work at a literary Agency. How do you handle a submission? What is your role in the writing process? In the publication process? What are the difficult decisions and situations you may be confronted with and how do you handle them? How do you help your client balance their creative desires and the long-term health of their career? How do you negotiate a collaboration between two writers? What do you do when an author's editor leaves the publishing house before the book has been published? What do you need to know when a book doesn't take off and what do you need to know when it does? Using real-world case studies, students will be walked through the many situations and decisions agents have to navigate with and for their clients over the course of their careers.
