Why work with an agent?
(Or better yet, why not?)

The Literary Agent:

​

• Accompanies the author throughout the entire writing process.

• Forms a lasting professional relationship with the author built on trust.

• Finds the publishing house that is the best match for the author's work.

• Represents the author in contract negotiations.

• Defends the author's best interests the whole way through.

 

The agent is a mediator who bridges the gap between editors and authors both domestically and abroad, with goodwill and determination. The agent's vast professional network, industry smarts and general know-how help their clients make informed choices. It is therefore a long-term relationship that does not seek to replace the one that the author will have with their eventual publisher, but to enhance it.

 

And don’t fret, the agent is only paid on commission!

 

Whether it be in fiction or non-fiction, adult or youth, we are looking for talent – be it emerging or proven – whose voices stand out in the literary landscape and who demonstrate a knack for storytelling. We are, in that sense, quite selective when it comes to the literary style of the texts we receive and the authors we work with. For now, we are not looking for works in the following genres: fantasy, science-fiction, romance, self-help, guidebooks, memoir, autobiography, plays, experimental fiction, or academic research. as of November 2022, we are no longer accepting new submissions. Stay tuned for updates
