An agent with Confluence Literary Agency (see other agents at this agency).

About

Twenty-five years ago, Sandra Bond planted her flag in Denver and founded Bond Literary Agency, proving that you absolutely can turn a microbiology degree from the University of Colorado into a thriving literary career.
Since then, Sandra has built a carefully curated roster of both debut and established authors across adult commercial and literary fiction, mystery/thriller/crime fiction, and YA. On the nonfiction side, she champions narrative works, accessible science writing, business books, and history. Her clients' books have traveled the world through multiple translations and made the jump to screen with film options.
Now she's thrilled to continue championing her brilliant authors in this exciting new chapter.

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.
