I am interested in finding a Literary Agent for a Biblical Fiction book that I am writing. Can anyone give me any pointers for finding one? Biblical Fiction is different than Christian Fiction--my story is from the Old Testament, and is NOT evangelical. It has no Christian message, is merely the re-telling of a fairly unknown Biblical Story.

Here's a list of literary agents who represent clients in the Christian fiction market: http://www.writers.net/agents/topic/28/ This page has general info about literary agents: http://www.writers.net/agents.html And this is a link to a very informative article on how to find a good agent or publisher: http://www.writers.net/articles/writers/method_madness.php

Do an Internet search for "literary agents". I would be interested in reading your book when it is finished. Object, possible film rights. Do not forget to get a copyright for it. Go to: http://www.hunterentertainment.net/ Click on Interesting Links Click on Copyright Office link.

I don't know about agents but if you haven't read "Fallen" by David Maine I think you'd find it interesting. It is a story about Adam & Eve and Cain & Abel and it's very good.

You can do an internet search but your best bet is The Writer's Market Deluxe Edition. It's a hefty price, ranging $50-$60, but it lists all the markets for different genres and also lists agents. The Deluxe edition comes with a CD that gives you 1-year subscription to the Writer's Market online, which they update constantly. You can find it in any place like Barnes and Noble or Borders. Also, don't leave out some Christian publishers when searching (if you go to a small press you may want to skip an agent because agents take fees and sometimes it's not worth it) because some publish fantasy or alternative history or alternative takes (unless the ending is decidedly anti-Christian in nature) on scripture.
