GENRES/TYPES OF BOOKS I AM LOOKING FOR: 
Thrillers | Women’s Fiction | Commercial Fiction | Historical Fiction | High Concept Fiction  
Magical Realism | Love Stories | Science Fiction (sometimes) |YA (all sorts) 
Children’s Picture Books | Graphic Novels 
 Big Idea Nonfiction | Narrative Nonfiction | Pop Culture | Gift Books

I see myself as a matchmaker for writers & publishers. I am always looking for longtime partnerships with authors whose work I adore. Here is a sense of what I like:

• books that deftly dip into all of the magic, misery, joy, pain, lust, fear, hope, and nuance of living
• the ambition to evolve & inspire
• innovation
• strong characters
• stories that are cinematic
• stories that make me laugh or cry
• a new take on an old myth or legend
• looking at the same old universal issues from a completely new angle
• quirkiness
• realistic dialogue
• stories with a wide audience access point​
• beautiful illustration that stands on its own
