What will Calidris Literary Agency do for you, the author?
If you’ve written a good book – we will bend over backwards to help you get it published!
Essentially, once your manuscript has been accepted, this includes:
- Drawing up a proposal to submit to the publisher on your behalf.
- Negotiating all terms of the contract for you with the publisher.
What does it cost?
There is no fee for this preliminary work. Once you have signed a contract with the publisher, payments are forwarded via the agency and a commission of 15% is deducted.
Is this a one-off?
No, it is for the ‘life’ of the book.
What if I want to change agents?
The author is free to leave the agency at any time. However, Calidris will retain commission on any titles that they have negotiated.
