Looking for an agent who responds quickly?

I will respond to your submission within three weeks.

I am looking for travel narratives, business books for the professional and trade market, thrillers, suspense, and literary biographies. I am especially looking for popular history and narrative nonfiction.

If you have self-published and have created an e-book, do not submit. Publishers will usually not consider your work.

I have worked in book publishing for over thirty years.

I have been an acquisitions editor, managing editor, and packager. Publishers I have worked for include Bantam, Doubleday, McGraw-Hill, and Fairchild.

I have packaged such notable books as The Diana Chronicles by Tina Brown, House of Cards by William D. Cohen, and Start Over, Finish Rich by David Bach.

 

Submission Guidelines: For novels, send complete manuscript as attachment along with cover letter. For nonfiction, send query letter and completed manuscript. Please do not mail hard copy. Please send attachments to chris@cfliteraryagency.com.
