All material should be pasted into the body of your message; attachments will not be opened.

We no longer accept submissions by mail. Any material sent by mail with sufficient return postage will be returned unread. Material not accompanied by sufficient return postage will be discarded.

Due to the volume of queries we receive, please allow 60 days for a response. If you have not received a response within 60 days, you may assume that we have considered your submission and have determined it is not the right fit for any of our agents. A pass from an agent is a pass from the agency; please do not submit to more than one of our agents. No phone calls, please.
