Her background with MIRA should speak for itself. I write with the goal that one day Amy Moore Benson will be my agent.

As Benson is a former editor, I would imagine she’d work closely with her authors to ensure the best product is presented to editors. I’ve found that there are two types of agents: hands-on and hands-off — I get the distinct impression she’s one of the former, and that’s a plus in my mind.

Does “Strong focus on editorial development” mean: within the guidlines of AAR or something that should cause one’s “P & E-honed” antennae to go twitch?
