Hey y'all. I have a question about agents. (I was unsure if whether or not this belongs in the ASK THE AGENT form. If so, I do apologize.)
I've noticed a few agents have said they're interested in 20th century historical fiction. That's great because the MS I'm submitting is in the 1920s and I'm editing another that's set in the 1910s. However, I've also got one set in the 1830s, and if I am lucky enough to ever get any books published, I want to write about different time periods. For instance, I've got an idea about the American Revolution I'm chomping at the bit to get started.
Anyways, my point is that if I submit to one of these agents (the 1920s MS) and they take me on as a client, will they accept my other MSs set in different time periods? Does it depend on the agent?
I know most agents will want to represent your career as a writer, and I would hate to make it all the way to the call to have it all fall apart.
Thoughts and or advice is much appreciated. Again, I am sorry if I submitted to the wrong form.
Thanks.
