Visit the Website Bookbank From the website: The agency was founded in 1986 by Angeles González Díez to represent foreign publishers and literary agents in Spain and Latinamerica. It was, therefore, one of the first agencies of this market. In 1996, Alicia González Sterling took charge of the company and since then the focus expanded with the representation of Spanish authors, both in Spain and worldwide. Nevertheless, the policy is to have a small list of authors, that is getting bigger little by little, to be able to have the necessary time that the relationship with the authors require. We represent fiction, from literary novels to commercial and entertaining literature, both books for adults and for children and young adults; in non-fiction, from academic essays to popular science and general non-fiction.

As a boutique agency, we are proud to be able to maintain strong relationships and work closely with our authors at all stages of the publishing process. Since 1988 we have built our reputation as an internationally respected agency on the belief that our clients, and their concerns, are paramount. There is more to being a literary agent than merely ‘sealing the deal’, and we pride ourselves on our experience in working editorially with our authors when necessary before taking them to market — a process that can make the difference between just any offer, and a terrific offer! We welcome email submissions as per the submission guidelines found on our Contact page. No snail mail, drop-in or phone queries please. We do not handle screenplays, illustrated books and children’s books. Submissions What are your submission guidelines and how do I frame my query? The best way to attract our attention is to be straightforward. Start by telling us the title of your manuscript and what it’s about: a brief synopsis. Then tell us about yourself. You don’t have to have related academic credentials, or have been published previously to be represented by us, but a brief background of who you are and why you wrote your book can give us a more complete perspective of your work. Please avoid opening lines such as “What would happen if…” or “Imagine…” as this generally doesn’t help to get to the real content of what you are pitching. In addition to a brief bio and your synopsis, please send a recent writing sample. Please also do your research around our website. Know which agent might be the best fit for your work, and how to spell that agent’s name correctly. Please submit all of this in the body of your email – no attachments – and make sure it is double-spaced and in 12-point font. Finally, please do not drop by personally to hand us your submission. We never accept queries delivered in this manner.
