The New York Literary Agency

The written word has the power to make us laugh, cry, expose our failings, and give us the tools to fix them. As literary agents, it is our job and pleasure to bring our clients’ vision and world to fruition through publication.

At the New York Literary Agency, we take pride in finding and developing fresh, new literary talent. We believe that just because you are a new writer doesn’t mean that your work should be excluded from the marketplace, and we work hard to give you a chance at publication.

We do not charge reading fees or any other type of fee. We get paid when you get paid.

Our SuccessesWe and our sister agencies have successfully negotiated contracts for a number of titles to date . In addition, as of this quarter, corporate-wide, we have at least 68 “open” discussions with publishers about certain manuscripts, 3 contract negotiations underway for books, and 3 options in various stages for movies. We feel very positive that we will meet or exceed our goals this year.
