Literay Agents

I have had a time finding agencies, but I feel that these three are a good start and would give my story a good chance at being published.

The Steinberg Agency have three main publishers, Edward Graham, Lisa Kopel and Peter Steinberg. (The founder of the agency.) Lisa’s likes reading more of the nonfiction but Edward and Peter welcome fiction with open arms. (Edward has a few requirements for the writers. He would like to see clear and thought filled writing.) Peter does more of the YA fiction, he enjoys almost every genre category. They’ve had nominations the Pulitzer prize and several other awards since they began in 2007.

My next choice in agencies would be Heart line agencies, they are a Christian agency based out of Amarillo, Texas. Since they are a Christian agency they’re main focus is on that sort of writing...duh. They don’t however turn down other literary pieces with general interests in mind.

Terry Burns is an agent that works with my genre he says in his biography if it “is unique and different” along with what he sees to be marketable. (which I feel my story would fit these criteria). 

Now, last but not the least I would like to send a letter to The Knight Agency, They are another Christian agency who like suspense, thrillers, as well as mystery. They also deal with other genres but these are the ones I was looking for in an agency. One of their books from these genres is THE ANATOMIST’S APPRENTICE by Tessa Harris. It’s based back in the 1800s and it is a murder mystery, kinda like mine. 

I feel that Terry Burns would best serve my story because it is right up his alley, how ever looking at an agency as a whole I think The Knights Agency has more opportunities in my opinion and has been around the longest of the three. Then again The Steinberg Agency has been nominated for more awards so I would definitely have a hard time choosing one publisher.
