Autoreply 2026-06-25:

Thank you for your submission. I appreciate that you thought of me for your work.

I regret that the volume of submissions I receive (over 450 every week) has made it impossible for me to reply to each of them.

If you don't receive a response from me within eight weeks, it means that I will not be requesting further materials from you.

Always verify agent's information before sending your query, and review the agent's website(s) for more up-to-date information.

Though we do our best, QueryTracker can not guarantee the accuracy of any information provided.

An agent listing on QueryTracker is not an endorsement or recommendation of that agent by QueryTracker.

Before contacting an agent, authors should verify and assess the agent's requirements and suitability by visiting the agent's website(s), and becoming familiar with ways to spot and avoid bad agents. A good place to start is Writers Beware, a watch group that helps inform and protect authors from shady practices.
