My agent said, 'Jerry, Dancing With the Stars - they want you on there.' I said, 'Ain't no way. I'm not going to do that.' Then he came back to me again, and he kept putting pressure on me. I said, 'All right, I'll give it a try.' ↗

I have a hard time getting motivated to do something that seems like a career move. I've gotten into vague trouble with my agents for turning down work that I thought was exploitative. ↗

The name game is frustrating. Agents will say, They love you, but they're going to offer it to Julia Roberts first. ↗

A typical agent in New York gets 400 query letters a month. Of those, they might ask to read 3-4 manuscripts, and of those, they might ask to represent 1. ↗

I'll admit that it's not easy to get an agent, but becoming successful in anything requires perseverance. ↗
