The agency represents fiction and non-fiction, with separate submission routes for each; both go to the general submissions inbox rather than to any individual agent. FICTION Particularly interested in literary and speculative fiction, especially where the two overlap, and in all adult and young adult fiction. Children's fiction below Young Adult is not represented. What to send: a short covering email, a one-page synopsis, and the first three chapters or 7,500 words of the manuscript, sent to submissions@appletreeliterary.com (not to any individual email address). NON-FICTION Particularly keen to hear from those telling untold or unknown stories, and experts writing about new ways of understanding the world. What to send: a covering email outlining the book, why it has a place on the bookshelf, and why the writer is qualified to write it. A proposal or sample chapter, or the whole work if completed, should be included as an attachment alongside the query. Send to submissions@appletreeliterary.com (not to any individual email address). Not represented: TV/film scripts or poetry.
