Agent Profiles

Understand an agent before you query.

A query letter lands better when it's addressed to an agent whose interests genuinely match the manuscript. That means knowing more than a name — it means understanding what an agent represents, what they've said they're looking for, and how they like to be approached.

Phoenix's agent profiles are built from verified information and published only once confirmed. Where a profile you need doesn't yet exist, our team can research the specific agent you're considering and share what we find.

What a profile can include

• Representation focus

  Genres, categories and types of projects an agent represents.

• Background summary

  Publicly available information about an agent's career and client list.

• Submission preferences

  How an agent likes to receive queries, sample pages or full manuscripts.

• Current status

  Whether an agent is confirmed to be open, closed, or selectively open to submissions.

Useful for authors who are

• Deciding whether to query a specific agent
• Tailoring a query letter to an individual agent
• Comparing several agents before submitting
• Researching an agent ahead of a personalized pitch
