Asking Santa for an Agent? - by Christina Farley

Happy Holidays everyone! Have you written your list to Santa? One thing you might have on your list is: "Bring me an agent, Santa."

The other day, we MiGs were chatting about agents and offers and revisions and all that good stuff. After our chat, I thought how helpful it would be to put together all of our thoughts and ideas on what to do when you get that "call" from an agent.

So I made up this vlog that goes over each step of the process, some questions you might ask during the phone call and why you should ask those questions. I hope you find this helpful.



Anything else you would add to this list?

    Thanks Christina for the fantastic advice. I've bookmarked this to listen to if I ever get the call. It's very timely because sometime next winter I plan to query my upper MG fantasy, including to your agent. Happy Holidays!

    Christina is as lovely on Video as she is in still-photos. Good Vlog info packed into two+ minutes.
