Query update:
A big chunk of my subs waiting (aka requested materials) are picture books, but I have a list of fulls for MG and Adult Iā€™m still working through. I will open back up to queries once Iā€™ve gotten back to everyone on my requested materials list which should be mid December.

QM update- Iā€™ve updated my genres to include historical fiction and am no longer seeking horror, thriller, or womenā€™s fiction.

In historical fiction, Iā€™m especially looking for stories based around WWII, the Cold War, and the 1920s

Adding that I'm still so hungry for pacey lesbian thriller, especially anything that can be described as Master of the House but lesbian. If that's your book, let me know. šŸ‘€

Such a moving story! This is what led me to ask for something similar on my #MSWL ...but what could be better than signing the man behind the film himself? šŸ¤©

I intend to update the rest of my website soon with my client list and some more info, but if you want to know whether we could be a good fit, my MWSL is the perfect place to start. I'm actively growing my list, just taking a some time to read submissions and give more attention to my clients.

I'd love adult or YA horror that goes beyond the haunted house. I'm ready for something new.

I am not the right agent for slashers. I'm okay with gore/body horror, but if it outweighs the suspense/atmosphere/creeping dread, then it's likely not a good fit. #mswl

This list is not exhaustive, but hopefully helpful & indicative.

CAA does now have a writer facing website, so we welcome your submissions here: www.caa.com/entertainmen...

And, as I said on The Other Place, thank you for indulging my whims - itā€™s a privilege to be a professional treasure-hunter

The formally interesting too - Benjamin Zephaniah, Ursula LeGuin or David Almond-esque.
I published MG & YA for 10 years and it will always have my heart - the marketā€™s tough but the readers are still there!

I donā€™t tend to rep picture books or fiction younger than 7+

I feel very strongly that we need to focus on literary quality as well as accessibility in our books for children. Anything YA or MG that does any of the above, ideally with hook & humour, Iā€™d love to see.

ā€¦returning to nature & to ourselves.

I will always be drawn to international stories and settings - what is unfamiliar (& uncomfortable!) to a Western reader.

I donā€™t tend to rep high fantasy, but love magic & a speculative hook.

Every kind of love, please.

Themes: always, always work that in some way acknowledges the ecological crisis in which we now & will always exist.

Radical reimaginings of how we might live, in terms of collective care, eradicating borders, tearing down capitalist, colonialist & imperialist structuresā€¦
