Fiction Closed

My fiction list leans literary, and when I do take on a novel it is because I have been entranced by both writing the writing and by a deeply imagined story I feel I haven’t read before. I am no good on fantasy, satire, thrillers or mysteries. I do like novels that embrace other eras of history while still telling a story with a resonance that stays new.

Nonfiction Closed

illustration I am very excited by big non-fiction ideas written by historians, journalists, serious academics of other stripes. Eager for narrative journalism that enlightens on social issues, and social science when it is vivid and telling. While I occasionally sell to university presses, I am looking for books that can make an impact at trade houses.

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. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the agent or agency being listed. 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.
