It’s so important that your agent be passionate about your work in order to make a sale. Good for you for listening to your gut and making such a hard decision. I’m glad that everything worked out for the best.

Thanks for this post, Eileen!

Wonderful post, Eileen. It can be scary cutting off one tie before you’ve found a new fit, but you are right to trust in the Bigger Plan. Thanks for sharing with us.

Thank you so much for sharing this. While I’m not at the same point in my writing career, it’s helpful to hear stories of people who’ve struggled and come through on the end.

Good luck with your new book!

Eileen,
Great story, and I’m glad it has a happy ending. I, too, have changed agents, although the circumstances were different. And, like yours, my story ended well, also.
Changing agents shouldn’t be a writer’s substitute for good writing and hard work, but sometimes it’s necessary. When? I guess it’s like a giraffe. I can’t describe it, but you’ll know it when you see it.
