Stefanie Molina-Santos An agent with Looking Glass Literary & Media Management (see other agents at this agency). About Stefanie Molina-Santos is an Associate Agent at Looking Glass Literary & Media. She has worked in and around publishing for the past ten years, has been an agent for five years, and sits on the board of Literary Agents of Change. She reps kidlit through adult fiction and nonfiction and prioritizes underrepresented authors, especially BIPOC authors, across the board. Her favorite submissions usually have something to say about the world we live in, whether it’s subtle or in your face. They nearly always center some kind of healing or empowerment, and often center joy. Happy- or hopeful-ever-afters are a MUST! Country United States AI Policy Human-created work only; no AI use allowed Collapse section Fiction Temp Closed In MG and YA she loves gutsy, messy main characters in a layered narrative–bonus if there are sports, niche subcultures/hobbies, or world-saving involved. She is open to all genres in MG and YA, but prefers gutsy contemporary and grounded fantasy, social and social-ish horror, and mystery with a strong sense of adventure.In Adult fiction, she is seeking all things cozy across genres (including horror and sci-fi), as well as mysteries, thrillers, suspense, grounded fantasy, social/social-ish horror, women’s fiction, and high-concept, plot-forward romance, with a strong preference for BIPOC protagonists overall. As of late, she is on a romance and cozy fantasy kick! She adores grumpy/sunshine, enemies/frenemies-to-lovers, magical familiars (Shadow the hellhound has her heart) and companion animals in general, bi rep, pining, academics, witches, band geeks, and other lovable nerds.Dates:Will be open to submissions from 01 October 2026* (approx. 15 days from now) through 07 October 2026.Audience:Open to a broad Audience, including: Adults, Middle grades, Young adults.Genres: General Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Cross-Genre, Women's Fiction Fantasy Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Contemporary Horror Open to all/most Subgenres Mystery/Crime Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Cozy Romance Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Contemporary, Romantic Comedy, Romantic Suspense Science Fiction Open to all/most Subgenres Suspense/Thriller Subgenre: Romantic SuspenseLengths: NovelStyles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Humorous, Mainstream.Topics: Open to all/most Topics.Submissions:Method: QueryTracker.

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.
