A life-long reader and writer, I work as a literary agent and head up the Los Angeles office of The Knight Agency. Originally an east-coaster, I enjoy being able to go without a coat in January and not having to dig my car out of the snow, but I’ll always be a New Yorker at heart.
Regarding The Knight Agency:
Unless you have been corresponding with an agent who has asked you to do differently, you should send any and all queries to The Knight Agency by e-mail to: submissions [at] knightagency [dot] net to the attention of Melissa Jeglinski. We do not accept snail mail submissions, so please do not waste good postage mailing us things. They will end up in the circular file. Please take note that this includes submissions that you want to eventually come to me, or to any one of the specific TKA agents. Feel free to indicate if you have preference in your query letter, but the actual queries need to go through Melissa.
Queries should include a brief description of your full-length book (no short stories or novellas) and any pertinent information about yourself, as well as contact info. We do not represent poetry or screenplays.
I am presently seeking works in the following genres: up-market commercial fiction; women’s fiction; urban fantasy; single-title romance including paranormal, suspense, historical, and contemporary romance; historical fiction; and young adult and middle grade fiction.
