What is the basic path to getting a literary agent? I understand that going to a writing conference helps you find one, but where can I find writing conferences? I did a search for them and could only find writing retreats. Also, is there a cost to go to a writing conference? If that doesn't work, what's a good website to use to find a literary agent that is trustworthy?
