Manage submissions and discover talent – easier!

• Frequently Asked Questions:

• Why do I need AgentInbox?

  • Because managing your slush is easier and faster with AgentInbox. You can access your submissions remotely, sort them by genre or date, add notes to submissions of interest, and then delete or send automated rejections with a few clicks.
  • Benefit from WEbook’s quality screening, which filters out submissions that don’t match your interests or fall short of basic editorial standards.
  • Free yourself — and your regular email inbox — for more important tasks, like managing your new and existing clients.

• How does it work?

  • Registration is fast, easy, and free.
  • Create a quick profile telling authors exactly what you want. (Note: Currently, writers have limited ability to customize their submissions, so you may receive some components — like manuscript samples or full book proposals — that you’re not interested in. Upcoming enhancements of the service will allow writers to better meet your submission preferences.)
  • WEbook screens all submissions to make sure they’re accurate, complete, and professional.
  • Browse queries in an easy online interface. Reject unsuitable submissions with a single click, and contact the gems directly. Your privacy is assured — we never disclose your contact info.
