Lucinda Literary looks for 3 key criteria when considering new clients for both fiction and nonfiction: a big idea, distinctive writing, and a convincing platform. These keys are further explained in the book Get Signed: Find an Agent, Land a Book Deal, and Become a Published Author, written by Lucinda Halpern. We highly recommend reading this before querying our agency.

If you are still working to crystallize your book’s big idea, genre, comparative titles, pitch, or author platform, we invite you to explore The Lucinda Literary Academy, our coaching and education hub for aspiring authors. Through our Zoom consultations, workshops, and collaboration services, you’ll gain direct access to publishing experts who can help you shape your book and strategy for market success.

Please use the form below to submit your work once you’re ready to query us for representation.
