Authors and Their Agents

Over at Romance Divas, someone asked the question of how to find out who represented a certain author, and it occurred to me that there really isn't a a central location for this kind of information.

So...

I'm going to try and keep a list of my own. It's not going to be anywhere near complete (that would take a monumental effort), and since authors occasionally change agents, it might not always be up to date. But it's a start. If you know of any author/agent relationships, let me know in the comments and I'll add them as we go along. (Links will be added as time permits. Until then, try: Agent Sites, Blogs, Etc.) Also, if I got anything wrong, let me know.

  2. Gnarly. Well, then the list serves two purposes... 1) It keeps me out of trouble. 2) It amuses me.

    I'm easily amused. ;o)
