I represent middle grade, young adult, and adult fiction across all genres, with an emphasis on historical, SF & fantasy, romance, and contemporary fiction. I'm also open to non-fiction submissions in the areas of design, cooking, and fashion.
I love to read novels set in unusual time periods and locations, whether that involves a fantastical element or not. I'm rarely able to resist the trickster king motif, and have a weakness for read-between-the-lines subtle romances. Yet I'm constantly surprised by books not on my "wish list," and am always open to stories with compelling characters and emotionally involving plotlines.
