Welcome to the Chamein Canton Literary Agency f/k/a Canton Smith Agency

Thank you for visiting our new site. As a literary agency, we like to give writers the opportunity to stay in touch with us. A new content management system will enable us to always keep you up to date.

We are focusing our energy on our current clients, however we are open to new and and experienced writers. We prefer that you send us an email query with synopsis only.  We are a small agency and we don't have the personnel to deal with an onslaught of snail mail manuscripts and/or proposals. Please note that we have suspended submissions until December 2007 in order to address a backlog of representation queries, book proposals and manuscripts. We will make every effort to handle this in a timely fashion. We ask your patience.

We look forward to hearing from you. You can contact us at our e-mail address: ericsmith@cantonsmithagency.com and cantonsmithagency@cantonsmithagency.com or jamesw@cantonsmithagency.com

If you are not familiar with our company and your first contact with us is online: We would be pleased to hear from you! Please let us know what your needs and questions are, we will be more than happy to help.

In brief, you should know the following about us: our company was established in 2001 and has been responsible for bringing outstanding new and established writers to the grand field of publishing. We specialize in helping new and established writers expand their marketing potential for prospective publishers. We have two main offices in New York and Texas.
