If a agent agrees to represent an author and lives in another state, who should pay for the first meeting?

Question

Might have an agent interested and she lives in NY and I am in Ohio.... just wanted to know if anyone would know the answer. I mean if there is a industry standard or if all agents are different.

Answer 1

Generally a prospective client (you) would visit the agent in his or her office. This is true in any situation or venue.
