Check out Jennifer Crusie's blog entry about how she and her agent, Meg Ruley, parted ways:

Is this like a divorce from your agent, or would this count as the firing of a writer?
Very interesting, especially since this presents one side of a sad story. I wonder how much trouble this created for Meg with Crusie's publishers.
As Jennifer suggests, change can be good, but it can come with some tough realities.
I wish them both the best of luck.

Wow. It does sound like a divorce, 'specially with her death analogy. I expect they'll both emerge just as strong. I sure do understand the need for change....
How interesting, Blogger seems to have eaten my comment. Let's try again!
Over at BookEnds, Jessica Faust has a post on this event from an agent's point of view.
She also has a post on which the comments are absolutely fascinating, asking what you--an author--would look for in an agent.
Nan, thanks for this information and Laura thanks for bring the Bookends comments to our attention.
Laura, I also thought your comments on the Bookends site regarding what you look for in an agent was very well said.

Laura - I've had a comment go missing on this blog recently myself. I too read - and was impressed by - your insightful comment on Bookends.)
