Literary Agents of the
Rocky Mountain Writer's Summit™

Literary agents are probably the least understood aspect of the publishing business.

Authors who engage literary agents are not necessarily any closer to getting published than when they were writing and sending out their own query letters. Literary agents negotiate a publishing contract with publishing companies who feel their clients must have representation.
