Neeti Madan

An agent with Sterling Lord Literistic, Inc. (see other agents at this agency).

About

Neeti represents a wide range of inspiring authors, among them #1 New York Times best sellers Jenny Lawson and Lisa Lillien, physician Dr. Uché Blackstock, biographer Gretchen Holbrook Gerzina, journalist Pamela Newkirk, urban designer Jeff Speck, and artist Rajiv Surendra. Her books run the gamut from the commercial to the cerebral. A true generalist, she is drawn to thoughtful writing on intriguing and important subjects, including memoir, journalism, popular culture, lifestyle, and the occasional novel. Neeti is on the lookout for the types of books she loves as a reader—writing that breaks through barriers and elevates underrepresented voices, page-turners that keep her up until 3 AM, and irreverent books that make her laugh.

Agent Impersonation Scams are becoming commonplace.
A legitimate agent will not contact you and request money to represent you. Never pay an agent an up-front fee. That is not how literary agent representation works. Agents earn a commission only after they've landed a publishing deal for you. Also, agents scarcely ever contact writers. If an agent that you haven't queried contacts you about representation, be suspicious. Look up the agent and check if the email address is correct for that agent/agency.
