Ernie is an Agent at Fuse Literary
Representing writers ready to take the book world by storm.
Ernie loves nothing more than to work with his clients on the books of their dreams. As both an agent and a writer, he knows what it's like to be in the query trenches, and his goal is to be the type of agent writers hope to find.
For the past five years, Ernie has represented bestselling, award-winning, and critically-acclaimed authors at Fuse Literary Agency. From hands-on editorial to career coaching to rights management, he believes in open communication, positive collaboration, and maintaining a long-term vision to help his clients achieve successful, sustainable writing careers.
Ernie was selected by Writer's Digest for their 'Annual Agent Roundup' of the "most sought-after and respected literary agents in the business." He was also featured in Writer's Digest's 'Agent Spotlight' Q&A column, and is a regular faculty member of Writer's Digest University's online courses.
Prior to becoming an agent in 2020, Ernie was an assistant literary agent at Fuse, a mentor and communications director for the Pitch Wars writer mentorship program, and a copywriter for a Fortune 500 client.
