Of your 20 worst agents, you fail to answer one question. Why are they the worst? As a writer and doing business in another field, fees are apart of life. Is this the only reason these agents are the worst? Are there any other reasons?
If you're a writer, then fees are only a part of life on a lower level (photocopying, postage, etc). Otherwise, your agent should only take a percentage when he or she makes a sale for you. Follow the link I supply at the bottom of the post for, as I say, context.
