A more horror-tinged KALA by Colin Walsh would be an incredible place to start. Or The Craft X PENANCE by Eliza Clark. God, those were two excellent books.

Forget Dark Academia, you know what we need? Dark Townies. Fucked-up kids doing weird rituals whilst working awful retail jobs, or lurking behind the bars in ancient pubs...

#MSWL , I grew up in a nothing rural-adjacent market town and god lord, we searched and hoped to uncover dark conspiracies and spookiness most foul. We didn't find any, so send me some if your book is in that world.

I’m really keen to find some new writers of literary, crossover, and book club fiction to join my list at @MMLitAgency this summer. If your project feels like it could be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you 😊

Strong storytelling skills are as important in nonfiction as they are in fiction. Structure and language are key.

Journalists who have deeply covered their field, infiltrated a story and can write about in-depth better than any other person.

For nonfiction, platform is important. Academics who own their subject, who’ve done more thinking and research about it than anyone else, stand out. But your writing chops are what makes it sellable.

FOR NONFICTION, I acquired history for years as an editor. I love big, bold, definitive books that shake up how we think of a person or event.

I don’t represent children’s picture books, but for the sake of my eight-year-old son, I’m open to chapter books for kids and teens. (He loves the Alex Rider series and I introduced him to old school Gordon Korman!)

I don’t represent romance, but would I turn down one that I immediately recognized as spectacular? No. Will I receive many? Not kidding myself.

I love dark crime thrillers, literary horror, suspense, complex espionage tales, genre mash-ups, whether they feature female or male protagonists.
