Belcastro Agency is thrilled to announce that Morgan Wilson has been promoted to junior agent! With their keen eye and editorial savvy, we are so happy to have Morgan continue their career with us!
So excited to announce Caitlyn Averett is joining our team! I can’t wait to share Caitlyn’s beautifully written, heartfelt story about a boy that didn’t really want to live, didn’t mean to die, but most certainly didn’t intend to be resurrected seventeen years later.

As a female engineer I am looking for middle grade, YA and PB about girls in STEM. All genres. Who achieve their goals thru bravery and not necessarily confidence. I want some real models not role models for our young women.

sometimes there’s nothing at all wrong with your story, it just not for that particular agent and that’s ok because it will be for someone. Don’t get discouraged and don’t take rejections personally. Keep on querying.
You all are so amazing. I have to close my Querymanager to catch up. I've been overwhelmed with so much talent and great stuff. Authors are my rockstars!
I know
#writers
hate writing query letters. But I love writing pitches in prep for submission of my clients’ work. It gives me the chance to pour my heart into it and express all that I love about it.
#amagenting
Starting in January I will be accepting nonfiction queries in addition to YA. Send me your memoirs, pop culture, food, lifestyle, true crime, narrative, or any combo of the above!

You know you’re getting old when you can’t wait to try out your new vacuum. And two bulldogs zooming around the house is all you really need to be happy.

Could use your prayers and positive vibes to help me get this feisty old guy back to his feisty old self. He fell yesterday and broke his hip. He’s having surgery today.
I want another dog. My husband said I’m bordering on dog hoarding. My friend said I take good care of them so it’s not considered hoarding it’s considered collecting. And that is why she’s my friend.

don’t write your query letter from the perspective of your protagonist. Especially if your protag is a serial killer. It’s waaaayyy too creepy.
