What they’re looking for

From their profile

I have a BA in English Creative Writing from Binghamton University and a MS in Publishing degree from Pace University. I began my career interning everywhere from Writers House to Open Road and have joined InkWell Management after working in foreign rights at Janklow and Nesbit. My interests include but are not limited to: upmarket women’s fiction, commercial fiction, cookbooks, crafting and do-it-yourself books, multicultural and LGBTQIA+, children’s, fantasy and literary fiction. I’m looking for novels that are as heartfelt as they are funny, think Sophie Kinsella’s SHOPAHOLIC SERIES, tell universal stories in a small scale setting, such as KITCHENS OF THE GREAT MIDWEST, and have just enough magic to keep you guessing, such as Eowyn Ivey’s SNOW CHILD. I lean towards the lighthearted, but will consider a book that explores darker matters if it’s done well. Submission Guidelines Please send submissions to me through QueryMe.
