Scovil Galen Ghosh Literary Agency, Inc.

Updated November 11, 2009

 Founded (under the name Scovil Chichak Galen Literary Agency) in 1992 by three of the industry’s most successful and experienced agents, the firm was renamed when our senior colleague Anna Ghosh became a partner.Works represented by the agency have appeared scores of times on national bestseller lists and been made into dozens of Hollywood movies and translated into more than 40 languages.

Our list is eclectic and chaotic, rich and diverse, and there is no type of book that doesn’t interest us if it is first-rate. We take on clients who interest us deeply as people and as writers, whatever their background and prior accomplishments. At any given moment we might be working on a first sale for an exciting new author or an eight-figure deal for a veteran of the New York Times bestseller list, or anything in between.

E-mail queries are strongly preferred, but must not be accompanied by attachments of any kind. If you prefer to mail a hard copy letter, please include your e-mail address so we can reply by e-mail, and don’t include a SASE or anything else. Send us an unadorned, unaccompanied letter as your first step, whether paper or e-mail. If we’re interested, we’ll e-mail you an invitation to submit additional materials and instructions on how to do so. We’re environmentally-conscious, heavy users of the Internet and don’t want to kill trees or burn fuel sending paper back and forth unnecessarily.
