Cynthia Segraves of Capital Talent Agency
(Link to CTA is broken. I can find no further information.)
About Cynthia: “I’ve been involved in the publishing industry for more than ten years. I have worked as a Development Editor for different publishing houses and individual authors and have seen more than 100 titles to market. I worked with Michael Gross, New York Times best-selling author. I have also written for national and international publications and have served as a writing instructor at the Writopia Lab in Washington, DC, and have run several writing workshops at public libraries in the area and Politics & Prose Bookstore. I received my B.A. in Literature from Bard College and M.F.A. in Creative Nonfiction from Sarah Lawrence. The new literary division of Capital Talent Agency is a wonderful home for authors who are looking for a supportive and hands-on agency. We want nothing more than to see our authors achieve their dreams, and we do everything we can to make that happen.”
What she is seeking: Young adult, children’s, nonfiction, memoir, commercial fiction (but no science fiction or fantasy).

For fiction and nonfiction submissions, send a query letter in the body of your e-mail. Attachments will not be opened.
