Authors don't always know what questions to ask about the policies, practices, and services of agents. As a result of several conversations between RWA and representatives of the Association of Authors' Representatives, the AAR has developed a checklist of topics which can be used by authors seeking to enter into a professional relationship with an agent. It is the hope of the AAR that this will help to create a more comfortable relationship among authors and agents, demystify agent activities, and reduce misunderstandings.
