Nonfiction Open

Amanda’s favorite subjects include (but are not limited to!) history, art, science, religion, nature, culinary arts, current affairs, gender studies, and cultural criticism. Her clients have written about exciting discoveries in epigenetics, biographies straight from the archives, and art that shifts our perspective of the everyday. In 2012, Amanda began working on wellness books while collaborating with Deepak Chopra. While at Penguin Random House, she edited such luminaries as Pope Francis, Joan Chittister, and Michael Singer among others. She currently represents both prescriptive and narrative titles, including spiritual memoirs, creativity handbooks, health guides, and meditation companions. She especially loves “bedside table books”—not ones we read cover to cover, but those we keep close and return to again and again.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible.

Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the agent/agency meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the agency/agent.
  • Unless the agency's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For agency submissions, it is standard to submit a query letter and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
