We are a mid-size literary agency headquartered in California with offices in Chicago and New York, and celebrating over 2,000 titles sold since the agency began in 1981. We bring the best of both worlds to the tablethe personal client attention of a small agency and the clout of a larger one. We invest a great deal of care in each project and each client. We devise a strategy at every stage of the writing process, from conception, to editorial, to publication, that is tailored to the client and will enable us to find the best publisher for his or her books. We are seeking long-term relationships with writers and illustrators whose careers we can develop and whose talent we can foster.
