Sasha Landauer

An agent with Writers House LLC (see other agents at this agency).

About

I have worked alongside Susan Golomb since 2023, providing editorial and business support to her clients who include Jonathan Franzen, Rachel Kushner, Vauhini Vara, Nell Zink, Yvon Chouinard, Danielle Trussoni, and Angie Kim. I have worked particularly closely with William Vollmann, Hallie Elizabeth Newton, Sophie Madeline Dess, Nancy Foley, and Imbolo Mbue.

I am also the founding editor of Notch, a literary and arts magazine based in New York and Paris. Short-form fiction has a special place in my heart, and I would love to use my industry connections to place clients’ work in top magazines.

Prior to joining Writers House, I co-founded a venture-backed outdoor gear company, worked as a small-town journalist, exhumed bones on an archeological dig in Mauritius, and interned on the foreign exchange team at Bridgewater. I grew up between New York City and Northern California, and attended Stanford University, where I studied Comparative Literature and Philosophy.

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.

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.
