Hey there!
I’ve sold a few books, some comics, and made some video games.
This profile is a work in progress. It probably will remain a work in progress forever.
Also, you don’t need an agent to get published, but hit me up if you want to do more.
Submission Guidelines
Submissions should be emailed to max@fantasybookagent.com
First and foremost, please read the information on our homepage carefully. I’ll know if you didn’t.
Since we’re more than just editors that talk to publishers for our clients, I need to get to know you as a person before I can consider getting into business with you. So please, add your favorite childhood book to the subject line, do tell me about yourself and what you write, but also why you write, your best writing advice, about interesting stuff you learned recently, books that you love (and why) and who of your friends you’d like me to represent instead of you.
That being said. Please limit your inquiries to (Progression) Fantasy, LitRPG, as well as closely adjacent fantasy and scifi (mostly cyberpunk, but only litRPG/PF) for now.
I also won’t be able to consider graphic novel or comic manuscripts without corresponding, ready-to-publish art.

Just give me some science fantasy with rich, detailed worldbuilding, deep characters, and a spark of hope, and you got me.
Last but not least, if you can mix Max Gladstone’s, Patrick Rothfuss’, or Tamsin Muir’s prose with PF elements and a tight, compelling plot, poke me.
