2 Samuel 15:34 "But
if thou return to the city, and say unto Absalom, I will be thy servant, O
king; as I have been thy father's servant hitherto, so will I now also be thy
servant: then mayest thou for me defeat the counsel of Ahithophel."
Agents help the
writer-publisher relationship by being a go-between. They help writers get the
best deal possible and handle the contract and business end so writers can
concentrate on writing.
They help the editors by
weeding out manuscripts so they are only presented with the best that is out
there. Agents make sure whatever they submit is the type of manuscript the
publishing house is looking for.
We may not be able to get
an agent until we find an editor interested in our work, but it’s a good use of
our time to try. We would treat submissions to potential agents as carefully as
we submit to editors.
