About Us
Long story short
Fuse Literary (formerly Foreword Literary) is a full-service, hybrid literary agency based in the Silicon Valley with offices in New York, Chicago, Dallas, North Dakota, and Vancouver.
We are not an agency that sells a book and then washes our hands of the project.
Innovations, such as our Short Fuse publishing program, help bridge the gaps between books, growing and maintaining the author’s fan base without lag.
Our Agents
We represent an eclectic range of publishing genres. Click on the agent’s photo or name to read a brief biography, what they’re seeking, and how to submit.

Our Staff
We rely on great people to help our agency behind-the-scenes. While they do not accept queries or submissions, we find them invaluable to our day-to-day operation and special projects.
