Writing Biz - Agent, Where Art Thou?
Dec. 3rd, 2008 04:42 pmHere's a link to an interesting article (forwarded through the GalleyCat subscription service) talking about the benefit to a writer of where the writer's agent is based - whether, that is, an East Coast or West Coast agent is more advantageous.

My own opinion starts out with the understanding that it's hard enough to get an agent without eliminating agents in supposedly disadvantageous physical locations from the potential pool, and ends with the fact that my own agent is based in NYC and I have not yet found that to be a disadvantage. *g*
