It may be broken, but here’s a plan to fix it!
Ah, finally get to catch up on reading some RCG posts. What a prolific group this is! Makes you wonder just how important a degree in creative writing might become to the average agent in the future. I’ve been busy cuz I’ve been doing alot of recruiting these days. So, when Eric, in a recent post wonders about the mega agent [...]

Zillow vs. “average” agent
