Welcome!

Folio Literary Management places both fiction and non-fiction with publishers throughout the U.S. and around the world. We represent many first-time authors (some of whom have gone on to hit the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and other bestseller lists). We also represent many well-established authors, and work closely with them to take their careers to new heights. Although each agent has particular likes and dislikes, certain criteria make a project/author particularly well suited for Folio:

Fiction: We are aggressively seeking upmarket adult fiction that’s appropriate for book club discussion; literary fiction and commercial fiction that features fresh voices and/or memorable characters.

Non Fiction: Many of us love narrative nonfiction – great stories paired with great writing – including memoirs – but also authors, experts, scholars, and journalists with well-researched, compelling and new ideas.
