Founded in 2002, Talcott Notch Literary is a five-member, full-service literary agency looking to represent the freshest voices in both adult and juvenile fiction and nonfiction. Their clients include New York Times, Wall Street Journal, USA Today and #1 Amazon bestsellers as well as award-winning fiction and nonfiction authors.

Three of their agents are looking for authors:

Gina Panettieri, President of Talcott Notch Literary, represents both fiction and nonfiction. In fiction, she loves quirky, edgy characters. Specifically, she’s seeking women’s fiction, paranormal, urban fantasy, horror, science fiction, historical, mystery, thrillers and suspense.

In nonfiction, she’s seeking history, business, self-help, science, gardening, cookbooks, crafts, parenting, memoir, true crime and travel. “Teach me something new, something I couldn’t find somewhere else, something based on original research and that’s the hook I’m looking for.”

Query Gina through her query manager here.                                             

Amy Collins is a USA TODAY and WALL STREET JOURNAL bestselling author and on the national advisory board for IngramSpark. She’s also a featured columnist for TheBookDesigner, Writers Digest Magazine, and the International Book Publishers Association (IBPA). When not in the office, she spends a great deal of time working with and training women from disadvantaged backgrounds. On the weekends, she's a singer in a Celtic blues band, and is saving for a faster motorcycle. 

Amy represents both fiction and nonfiction. She'd love to work with authors who have a passion for business and the promotional side of this industry as well as the writing side.

In fiction, she’s looking for fantasy and sci-fi and for historical fiction.

She’s also seeking Nonfiction, Gift books, Reference, and History.

Query Amy through her query manager here.

Dennis Schleicher is currently the President of the Connecticut Authors and Publishers Association. Schliecher is the best-selling author of: Is He Nuts? Why a Gay Man Would Become a Member of the Church of Jesus Christ. 

Dennis represents nonfiction and is especially interested in books relating to the Latter Day Saints. He’s accepting queries for Biography, Christian living, children’s books, church life, devotional, inspirational, LGBTQ, theology, bible study, reference, health, finance, fiction, self-help, psychology, grief, suffering, marriage, family, women’s, men’s, philosophy, history, social issues, parenting, clean romance, Latter-Day Saints, LDS, and Mormonism.
