Hi,
I am currently working on a novel and a screenplay (not related, but the novel I want to turn into a screenplay too eventually), and was wondering if I needed two seperate agents (one for my manuscripts, one for my movie scripts)?
If I do need two seperate ones, should I just go for ones in LA, or should I go to NY? I plan on mostly doing screenwriting (in LA, but I don't want to move there until I get some more scripts done and polished), but I also want to write some novels to help establish familiarity with the stories for now (most of my ideas I don't care about losing my rights to it, but one of them I simply won't just give it away via a screenplay without setting up the storyline/world first).
I know this is one of those "worry about it later" type questions, but I would like to know ahead of time so that I'll have an idea of how to plan when the time does come to try and get an agent.
