“The agents at Serendipity are kind, patient, and thoughtful. As a writer of color and a recent MFA graduate, I feel safe and supported knowing that the people I’m working with are dedicated to telling and representing my story.”

SUBMITTING YOUR WORK
We’ve made the process of submitting your work easy. All you need to do is complete the form, which will give us all the pertinent information we need to evaluate your submission. You’ll see that we request all the salient elements typically found in a query letter, and so do not require a query letter (though you are welcome to submit one in addition to filling out the form, if you so choose). We also request a synopsis of the work that details the plotof the story and the first fifty pages or first three chapters of your manuscript.
If we’re intrigued by what we see, we’ll request additional material from you. Based on your initial query letter, synopsis, and sample chapters, our office may request your manuscript in its entirety.
