querying!
1. Mary Krienke of Sterling Lord
Literistic
She is seeking: Mary represents literary
fiction, creative nonfiction, and realistic YA that pays close attention to
craft and voice. She is especially drawn to new and emerging writers who seek to
push boundaries of form and content, and she responds most strongly to writing
that reaches great emotional and psychological depths. She is equally interested
in work that illuminates through humor or by playing with genre. Her other
interests include psychology, art, and design.
2. Andrea Hurst of Andrea Hurst &
Associates
This alert from established literary
agent Andrea Hurst (Andrea Hurts & Associates): "I am reopening my
submissions this summer to unsolicited queries from June 1 - September 1, 2014." This is a great
opportunity for writers everywhere who are writing genres & categories that
Andrea accepts. She is not always open to submissions, and wanted writers to
know.
She is seeking: "I am looking for upmarket, book club women's
fiction, commercial women's fiction/romance (contemporary or historical), young
adult fiction, and most areas of nonfiction (authors with a substantial platform
who have already developed a solid, highly polished proposal - this includes
memoirs, health/wellness, business, self-help/personal growth, memoir,
cookbooks, pet books, spirituality). As of 2014, we are now accepting middle
grade contemporary fiction as well."
3. Renee Nyen of KT
Literary
She is seeking: Young Adult and Middle
Grade fiction. "I'm always interested in YA historical fiction, mystery, sci-fi,
and thrillers, but genre is not as important to me as strong prose and
compelling characters."
