Greetings fellow literary travelers and welcome to new subscribers,
Today’s post is June’s list of agents currently open to queries. A preview of last month’s is accessible here. These posts, with few exceptions, are the only ones with a paywall.
If you missed it a few months back, a detailed writer and artist residencies list is accessible here. I’m currently assembling a second list (there are more options than I’d previously realized for these residencies—a happy discovery ☀️).
Before the agent list, below are a couple of submissions alerts:
1. Badlands National Park Artist-in-Residence Program (hat tip to
for this listing): Application deadline June 16—“Writers, composers and all visual and performing artists are invited to interpret this wind-swept environment through their work...The park offers an apartment located in a small housing complex at park headquarters at no cost to the artist. Facilities for this program are wheelchair accessible.” More information is available here.2. Opening soon: the Academy of American Poets First Book Award - (48-100 pp - single spaced) - submission period: July 1 - September 1 - $5,000 prize + publication.
