&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-body"&gt;
&lt;div class="asl-wikipage-summary"&gt;Publishing industry veteran Alan Rinzler explains how to get a book agent for self-publishing authors. Agents are difficult to secure, but writers need to produce high quality writing, so writers should work with an editor to create professional work. Writers should also build a platform to gain a following by writing on a blog or for a local publication. Writers should also attend writer conferences to meet agents and create social connections. He suggests subscribing to Publishers Weekly and Writers Digest.&lt;/div&gt;
