Screenplay Evaluations. THUMBS DOWN AGENCY LIST. Contact Us Below, in alphabetical order, is a list of the literary agencies (not all of them currently active*) about which Writer Beware has received the largest number of complaints over the years, or which, based on documentation we’ve collected, we consider to pose the most significant hazard for writers. All have two or more of the following abusive practices: 1. Fee-charging–including reading fees, marketing or administrative fees, retainers, processing fees, and other forms of upfront or flat-rate charges that are made as a condition of representation. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. While the agencies listed here account for a substantial number of the complaints we’ve received, they’re just the tip of the iceberg. We do update the list from time to time, as questionable agencies sometimes change their names, clone themselves, or go out of business. . * Why do we continue to list agencies that aren’t currently active?
