If you want to publish a book, you have to have a literary agent. Or do you?

Aishwarya does away with the myths and looks at the facts: what does a literary agent do? What are the pros and cons of working with one? When should you hire one and when should you consider alternatives?

- A Suitable Agency founded by Hemali Sodhi
- Writer's Side founded by Kanishka Gupta
- Jacaranda Literary Agency founded by Jayapriya Vasudevan
