[Parody] Hannah Rogers

Her whole website seems to be a joke--down to her "our books" section, which after some research turns out that none of those books or authors exist (could have guessed with the Photoshop 101 style covers).

I say, it's either meant to be an entire joke, or a joking scam. Even if this there is a smallest chance of this being real, I would never work in a professional field with someone who has mostly joked around, and posted fake products.

EDT: I don't know the exact etiquette for posting works of the authors the agency represents of their website--haven't seen it that often, out of my limited experience--but that even seems flaky in of itself.

The subheader on that blog reads "The Desperate Writer's Last Resort."

It's humor.

Everything seems intended to tickle the funny bone of those in the know: from the website subtitle, "The desperate writer's last resort," to the disclaimer at the bottom, "Neither Hannah Rogers nor anyone associated with her is responsible for financial loss or emotional distress of anyone visiting this site."

Really, it hits all of the 'bad agent' jokes (and one of the only links on the site goes to Evil Editor, so...).

Just a side note, ignoring the fact that these particular titles are made up:
A lot of agents have lists of clients and their published work on their sites. Why wouldn't they want to advertise who they represent and what they've sold?

It's a longstanding joke, a site made by Evil Editor to poke fun at agents' sites. I believe it started with him finding the clipart photos.

Is it wrong that I kind of want to write that vampire book, now?

Linda is a Love Light, a special kind of human whose blood makes it possible for vampires to walk in the day. When her secret is discovered, every vamp on the planet wants a piece of her . . . but she only has eyes for one.

I mean... right?

Hasn't it been written already?

Oh wait, doesn't matter. Yep, go for it, Giant Baby.

Because of the sparkling? 'Cos my vamps would sparkle, all right, from the sun gleaming off their massive, daytime-walking, tanning-oil-slathered, ripped shoulders and six-pack abs.

And, there's this beach volleyball scene I've got in mind.... All original stuff!

My new favorite agent website

Hey, at least you didn't query her!

I, for one, thank you. The submission guidelines were damn delightful.
