Please send us a query letter of no more than two pages, which includes your credentials, an explanation of what makes your book unique and special, and a synopsis. Also, please include a self-addressed-stamped-envelope for our reply, which generally takes six to eight weeks.
We receive hundreds of submissions a month, all of which receive careful consideration. This takes time, so we encourage your patience. If we request your manuscript, we prefer that you send it to us on an exclusive basis.
Please do not query two agents within our agency simultaneously.
All queries may be addressed to:
Submissions
Writers House
21 West 26th Street
New York, NY 10010
If you wish to submit to Steve Malk in our San Diego office, queries may be addressed to:
Writers House
7660 Fay Avenue, #338H
La Jolla, CA 92037
We cannot guarantee a response to queries submitted electronically. Policies vary for each individual agent.
