If you’re an author looking for an agent, I thought I’d offer
a little help on this Moan…day
Monday is the start of a new week and I'm hoping to help get this Valentine week off to a creative
start. Let me know if this short list inspires you all to start submitting your “darlings”
to these wonderful women. What better way to share a little love this Valentine’s
week, than by sharing your babies with the world?
And good luck to all of you entering the submission
trenches.
3 Agents looking for manuscripts:
1)
ERIN NIUMATA is open for queries.
She’s looking for commercial nonfiction, including memoir,
as well as fiction: mysteries, rom-coms, and commercial women’s fiction.
To submit to her: send your query letter, synopsis and first
three chapters of your manuscript (or simply your query letter if you’re
submitting non-fiction). Submit everything in the body of the email to erin [@]
foliolit.com. Put QUERY in the subject line. Response time can take up
to six weeks.
But before you submit, check her out here on Twitter: @ecniumata

Lauren just reopened for submissions on Saturday, February 6th,
so now is the perfect time to get that query sent on its way.

some Adult fiction and non-fiction. But she’s always looking for diverse and
underrepresented voices.
