@Totally_Amazing and @Marg57 I think you're both misreading it. I think they mean you can't submit to multiple agents at the same agency.

Totally_Amazing, I'm thinking yes, it does mean exclusive submissions. I have not seen that in many years.

Also, after subbing through their website form, a note pops up saying - i think - to expect an email showing receipt of their submission. But I did not get one. Did I read that correctly?

From their website:
We do not allow simultaneous submissions to multiple agents. Please choose the agent who best aligns with your project. To avoid any conflict of interest, we cannot represent any author who has worked with one of our agents on Reedsy or in any work-for-hire context.

Does this mean they want exclusive submissions?
