Simenauer & Green Literary Agency (formerly Simenauer & Frank Lit. Agency)

I received some interest in my novel from the Jacqueline Simenauer agency. Fran Pardi is the name of the agent. Anyone with any experience with this agency or agent?

P&E lists Fran as having verified sales. Considering the dearth of public info, though, I'd ask her for a list of clients/recent sales.

Does anyone have any experience with this agancy? Carole Greene in particular, as she is looking at a manuscript of mine. Thanks.

I'm not finding any agency of that name beyond a listing in a Naples directory. Where did you see/hear of it? On the other hand, an agent named Carole Greene is mentioned as attending a conference also attended by Jacqueline Simenauer, so she may be working with her.

Carole Greene taking a break

(Not sure if this is the right spot for this, so mods feel free to move it)

Carole Greene, of Simenauer & Greene Literary Agency, is taking a break from acquiring new clients. I've started what I'd like to think is a friendship with her, and I wish her all the best and a speedy return. She's still working with her existing clients.

Honest, prompt rejection from Green

I received an honest and prompt rejection via email from Carol Green within a week of my query. As a first time fiction writer , I appreciated that she did not pull punches and shared that she felt my manuscript needs considerable work, but did so it in a respectful and constructive way. I would encourage anyone who has something polished to take the time and query her.

If LinkedIn is to be believed, Ms. Greene left last month to edit for Barringer Publishing, and the agency is now Simenauer & Frank.

So, Carole Greene returned as Carol H. Green? Regardless, agency is now Simenauer & Green (no "e"). Not finding what happened to Chris Frank, who was making "good" deals through '14.
