Send a Query to Jemiscoe Chambers-Black at Andrea Brown Literary Agency

View this agent's QueryTracker profile.
Fields marked (required) are required, and the other fields are encouraged.

I am currently building a diverse list of authors and illustrators. While I represent a wide range of age groups, I am currently only open to authors writing YA and adult fiction and illustrators. Across the board, and regardless of age group or genre, I am interested in writing that contains authentic emotional resonance—whether it brings on the giggles, tears, or both.

・If we met at a conference or I requested your work in a pitch event, please include that info in the query letter or referral box.

***I will respond to EVERY submission that I receive. Lately, wait times have been slightly longer. Please expect submission-response to be anywhere from a day to 6 months. I do apologize for that. Feel free to nudge me should I take longer than 3 months to check on the status of your query.***

Thank you for your query!
