Always verify agent's information before sending your query. Verify the agent's query preferences, contact information, genres of interest, and if the agent is still open to queries.

Although QueryTracker tries to stay current, it is not always easy. Never trust any single source for agent information (and yes, this includes QueryTracker).

Review the user comments for more information, and always follow exactly what it says on the agent's website.

And NEVER give money to an "agent".

Leave comments about your experiences with this literary agent, or read what other authors have to say.

EQ: 4/6
CNR: 8/6

Upper middle-grade fantasy adventure

Whatever the website says, it's clear that these guys do NOT respond to all queries. Lots of people here CNR'ing them.

I know that the agency says they do respond, but I queried him Jan. 26 and nudged four weeks later. Nada. And now it's been another month and I still haven't heard a peep. Needless to say, I'm not holding my breath now, but it'd be nice to have closure, considering the agency does give a timeline and promises a response. Rant over.

Forgot to add: I'm CNRing this one now. Grrr.

Robyn, he's not with D4EO, he's with DeFiore. Similar, but different! Their website says that they respond to all queries within 4 weeks, so if you've waited that long you might want to follow up. I queried him about 2 weeks ago with no reply yet.

That is correct hellogoodmorning. In fact, the entire staff is moving to DeFiore. I'm waiting on details and new contact information before I can update their profiles.

It seems he's moving to DeFiore and Co.
Can anyone confirm this?

Their website doesn't seem to be working. A page comes up, informing me that my web browser is out-of-date, which it is not. I can look at every other website on the internet, but theirs, so I kinda doubt that the problem is mine.
