📖4/ I'm not looking for memoir or business books. I’m looking for smart, well-structured nonfiction that reveals how the world works, who holds power, and what’s at stake. Think synthesis, storytelling, and serious ambition. #MSWL

📰3/ Journalists: I’m drawn to books with depth and urgency. If you’re reporting on a topic that matters—climate, surveillance, migration, inequality, power—and can combine a compelling story with rigorous analysis, let’s talk. #MSWL

🕰️2/ Historians: I'm looking for projects that bring the past alive in vivid, accessible prose. If you're an academic with narrative skill and writing for general readers—on war, politics, technology, empire, race, culture, anything big—I want to hear from you.

📚1/ Gramercy Lit is open for nonfiction submissions! I'm especially eager to hear from historians and journalists with big, ambitious book ideas aimed at a wide audience. If you're working on something narrative, deeply reported, and driven by original insight, please read on.

TL; DR, surprise me, I'm on the hunt for fiction right now, though I'm always open to a smart NF book proposal. I'm in the mood to see more edgy material and stories that make me think and stay with me long after. For TV/ streaming I LOVED Severance, The Last of Us, and From.
