Savvy Literary Services is a start-up Houston-based literary agency that specializes in the Latino book market. The main focus of this agency is to offer professional literary representation to Latino and other minority writers because they are among the most misrepresented in the publishing industry today. While the agency's prime directive is to help Latino authors get published, non-Latino writers are represented as well.

Before Savvy Literary Services came along Latino authors wishing to be represented and published in English and Spanish had to seek this kind of specialized representation outside of the U.S. Authors of Latin descent who reside in Mexico, Central, and South America wishing to break into the U.S. market can now count on Savvy Literary Services to guide them on their journey. Since it's inception in January of 2007, Savvy Literary Services has had the distinct privilege of representing talented and up-and-coming Latino authors in various genres.

"I am pleased to be working with Leticia. She has been diligent about sending out my manuscripts to significant editors and has kept me informed on a regular basis. So far we've had three requests from reputable publishers to see the entire novel. I am confident that Leticia will find a home for Searching for Dolores.

Debbie Thomas author of Searching for Dolores

"Perhaps what impressed me the most about Leticia Gomez and Savvy Literary Services is the level of professionalism exhibited in dealing with me as an author. Let's not forget that Leticia has filled a very important void in the literary industry. She is the first bonafide representative for Hispanic themed books in the United States. I am extremely happy with her services."

Jose Paredes author of The Man Who Altered History: The Hector Sanyustiz Story

"After being represented by several harried and hurried literary agents long on promises and short on results, I am delighted to have one now who shares with me a similar cultural background, works hard marketing my manuscripts, and perhaps more importantly, keeps in touch via telephone and e-mail."

David Pereda, author of Who Killed Fidel Castro and Havana Top Secret.

"Leticia Gomez is the kind of literary agent most writers only dream of having-talented, dedicated, and willing to stick with you because she believes in your work. I am thrilled and grateful to have her as my agent.

Paula Meseroll author of Little Hot Mama

"On a scale of one to ten, I would rate Leticia Gomez and Savvy Literary Services an eleven. Leticia is hardworking, professional, and, equally important, she keeps me in the loop. Savvy reps my middle-grade Andy Sweet Adventure series and my YA novel Voices of the Locusts. I can't say enough good things aboutMs. Gomez.

Ron Hutchison author of Voices of the Locusts, The Andy Sweet Middle-grade Adventure Series and creator of The Sixth Sense psychological board game.
