Agents Gay erotic romance is such a niche market that compiling a list of potential agents is a pain in the ass. I don’t know if any of you can help, but I’d appreciate it. I’m hitting a few of the searchable databases and I figured I’d post a broad list here. I don’t know which, if any, of these I’ll query.
Nicole Kenealey with Aaron M. Priest Lit Agency
(gay/lesbian fiction)
http://aaronpriest.com/submissions.htmlBrown Literary Agency
(women's fiction, romance, erotica, no men's fiction--is m/m erotic romance intended for women readers considered men's fiction?)
Not currently reviewing new material.
http://www.brownliteraryagency.com/submissions.htmlSharene Martin-Brown with Wylie-Merrick
(romance and erotica, I know she's repped at least one gay romance title. This listing is a bit confusing to me. On the Wylie-Merrick website it says to contact her via her e-mail address. On a searchable agent website it says anything coming to her e-mail address will be deleted and you must submit through an online portal on the Wylie-Merrick website. The portal is no where to be found. A few months ago everything seemed to be sent to an assistant of some kind, but his information is no where to be found. I'm going to assume the Wylie-Merrick site has the most current information.)
http://www.wylie-merrick.com/2.htmlNancy Coffey with Nancy Coffey Literary & Media Representation
(handles erotica and gay and lesbian, but I'm not sure if she handles gay erotica.)

(romance and gay and lesbian, but no "catagory romance". I don't know what catagory romance is. )

Uwe Stender with TriadaUS Literary Agency
(romance and "multi-cultural", but does handle G&L NON-fiction. The agency website is a geocities website. I'm not judging; I'm just pointing that out.)

That's a really short list. I'll add more as I find them. Can anyone else add a name or two?

Not yet. Sorry. I'm still waffling on coughing up money for a year's membership at writersmarket.com.

I've never checked into that website. I just know that gathering a list of names is a whole lot of leg work. I figured I'd post some here and save other people the trouble.
