FAQ - Query


Don't know why this didn't post as I thought I'd scheduled it but I got distracted this morning by some nice news and then I had to go report for jury duty . . . any way, here's the Monday post, better late than never. Watch this space tomorrow for the nice news.

One Q that I get very F is "Who's your agent?"

My incredible agent, she who had the good taste to see a future for Elizabeth Goodweather, is Ann Collette with the
Rees Literary Agency. She likes literary, mystery, thrillers, suspense, vampire, and women's fiction; in non-fiction, she prefers true crime, narrative non-fiction, military and war, work to do with race and class, and work set in or about Southeast Asia.  

No high fantasy (elves and such), sci-fi, YA or children's books.
Ann prefers email queries.  Send a terse query (What's a query? See HERE.) and the first 10 pages of your book in the body of the email; like most agents, Ann doesn't open attachments from people she doesn't know. 

 Ann can be reached at Agent10702@aol.com.

And it goes without saying but I’ll say it anyway – NEVER QUERY AN AGENT WITHOUT A FINISHED MANUSCRIPT – PROOFREAD AND READY TO SEND IN FULL.
