Please query first with a letter or email. We do not consider unsolicited manuscripts, or material that has been previously submitted to publishers. If querying by email, send a project description and brief biographical information including publishing credits if any (no attachments please) to the appropriate agent, and put "Query" in the subject line; if querying by conventional mail please include a SASE.

For queries to Sam Stoloff or Ellen Geiger, please click here.

We do not handle screenplays, illustrated books, romance or science fiction.

We do not handle work that is racist, sexist, ageist, homophobic, or pornographic.

There is no charge for reading. Response time is 4 to 6 weeks. Due to the large volume of submissions we receive, we are not able to respond to all email queries.
