Manuscript Wishlist

In fiction, I’m seeking commercial and upmarket fiction titles with a high concept pitch in a variety of genres (listed below). Generally, I’m drawn to characters that are haunted by something, whether figuratively (a secret, a past, an obsession) or literally (a ghost, a monster, an object). I’m especially looking for character-driven stories featuring women in power, stories of female rage, or stories that negotiate patriarchal structures. I have a soft spot for unreliable narrators, family sagas with dysfunctional families, and stories that focus on friendship dynamics (whether sweet or sinister). I am also drawn to fun and joyful titles that explore the diverse experiences of underrepresented groups and challenge our understanding of diasporic cultures or experiences.

For nonfiction, I welcome both narrative and prescriptive books with fresh and accessible perspectives. I’m interested in big-idea books, industry deep dives, business, health, and self-help, as well as personal narratives on pop culture, art, and nature. I love and appreciate books that offer incisive commentary on culture, socio-economic structures, and corporate underbellies. My taste in nonfiction is broad; I gravitate towards books that generally challenge what we know or explain what we might not know.

If you are interested in querying me, please look through the list of the genres I represent (and the ones I don’t represent!) below.
