Hi @BrittSiess, Thanks for this.1: When considering a query, how significant are details like page count, size/dimensions or color artwork vs. black and white?
2: If available, are agents willing to use a dropbox link to read a finished project? #AskAgent #AskBrittSiess
Dropbox links are always fine. A lot of people use them because the file is too big to send via email. Page count is pretty important (depending on genre) but it can usually be altered if it's off. Dimensions are decided by the publisher, and I really just have to love the art

I guess a good follow up would be, how do I find and agent specific to comics/graphic novels? Or is it okay to bleed into the illustration side? #askagent #askbrittsiessI would say talk to your fellow creatives. who are the agents they use? who do they work with or recommend? then go from there.

At what point in an art career should I consider/get an agent? #askagent #askbrittsiessThis is really up to you. A lot of my clients consider an agent when they have so much freelance work that it's hard for them to keep up with the admin AND have time to be creative. The upside of an agent is that an agent does the admin/negotiation/contracts, and you create.

My tweet about representing graphic novel creators has gotten so much attention. Thank you! I’ve gotten a lot of questions and I’m wondering, if I did a graphic novel only #askagent, would there be interest? #PortofolioDay #graphicnovel
