First, I'd like to draw your attention to the tabs along the top of the screen. I spent some time updating them so we now have all our guest posts and interviews in one convenient place in the GUESTS tab. More epically, we've added THE MYSTERY AGENTS tab, where you can see every contest entry post, reveal post (with agent interviews), and success story - in order as they happened. We hope this will aid you in your agent research and, in the case of the success stories, inspire you.
September's M.A. contest results are coming VERY SOON, either Sunday or Monday.
NOW FOR THE DETAILS:
This Saturday, October 1st, the new Mystery Agent contest will launch, so if you're writing in any of the following genres, get ready! Our agent will choose one winner out of maximum 50 entries, and that person will get a 50-page partial request. THIS IS NOT A ONE-LINE PITCH CONTEST! Sorry for yelling. Just wanted to be sure I had your attention. Pitches can be 2-4 sentences long. Please make sure your manuscript is complete and ready to send before entering our contests. Thank you!

Ok, just to clarify, for the sci fi/fantasy, does that include adult? I follow so many blogs I mix up which ones are just YA.
Thanks!

We're excited to have an M.A. who accepts YA and adult this time around! It varies each month. Thanks for asking.
Yay! Thanks, just wanted to make sure. ;)
I love the tabs! Even the contests I haven't entered, I'v learned about great agents and their tastes. So helpful!
Thanks for all you guys do. :)
