Congratulations, Lane! I've enjoyed your query tips and wish you well as an agent.
Are you open for queries now? I didn't see your e-mail address on the agency site.
Ditto re: will send mine -- yep, your email's now on the contact page, thx.
Lane, I recently submitted to you. But having read through the thread and learning of the agency's religious leanings, I'm uncertain if my current novel would be a good fit or not. It's a dark fantasy novel with quite a bit of adult language and adult situations. Probably not as graphic as say George R.R. Martin, but on par with Stephen King.
Do you represent works with a bit of an edge? Or is there an agency policy against foul language, sex, and violence?
Thanks,
Wil Radcliffe
Hi Wil,
Great question. I think there's a certain stigma around the "Christian agency". Yes, we are a Christian agency, but in no way are we "conservative" or "fundamentalist".
Let me put it this way, I am Jewish and LOVE dark fantasy, weird fiction, and macabre stories. Heck, my own fantasy is pretty dark.
Our agency reps some dark and sexy stuff, witches, werewolves, vampires, demons, paranormal romances — even an erotica, I think.
I can't speak for other agents, but send me your edgy, disturbed, and magnificent fantasy!
Hope that helps.
Hey everyone!
Just getting into the querying business. For people who've queried Lane, do you know if he responds to all queries?
I'm worried my emails aren't getting through spam filters (I did faithfully follow submission guidelines, but I've had some trouble with my email address), and I didn't receive any automated responses of confirmation, so thought I'd ask the forum.
Thanks!
