I was very sad to hear yesterday that my agent, SCOTT MILLER of TRIDENT MEDIA GROUP, has passed away. Scott had been my agent since 2008, and the guidance and support he’d given me over the years was invaluable. He negotiated some very good deals for me and offered plenty of advice but, perhaps most importantly, he knew when something wasn’t working and was always willing to tell me.
Over the last few months we’d been in touch a lot, discussing my next novel, DIRTY DAY. Scott had enthused about this book since I first sent it to him – far more than with any project I’d worked with him on previously – and he was about to take it out to submission.
Obviously it’s too soon to be talking about the fate of DIRTY DAY or what’s next for me in terms of representation etc, and in the scheme of things none of that’s important. I just wanted to post something this morning to publicly thank Scott for his many years of guidance and support, and to offer my sincere condolences to his friends, family, and colleagues.
