Currently Looking For
I am an agent at WLA Books looking for fiction and select nonfiction. Fiction: Romance (contemporary, historical, paranormal, romantasy, “booktok”): THE PARADISE PROBLEM, THE HATING GAME, BRIDE, THE KNIGHT AND THE MOTH Fantasy (high-fantasy, vast world-building, romantasy): DEADLY EDUCATION, FOURTH WING, THE EMPRESS OF SALT AND FORTUNE, THE FAMILIAR, THRONE OF GLASS Sci-Fi (space operas, space westerns): A MEMORY CALLED EMPIRE, RENDEZVOUS WITH RAMA, THE TUSKS OF EXTINCTION, ROSE/HOUSE Westerns (with a twist): THE COUNTRY UNDER HEAVEN, THE BULLET SWALLOWER Fairy Tales/Folk Tales: THISTLEFOOT, HOW TO BE EATEN, SPINNING SILVER, THE NIGHT ENDS WITH FIRE, THE FOX WIFE Horror: THE UNWORTHY, THE STARVING SAINTS Select Short Story Collections I would love to see books that tell under-represented stories. Historical fiction should feel well-researched and authentic, while any fantasy must have a strong foundation for its world building and setting. I am open to anything that can be comped to the works of Silvia Moreno-Garcia. Nonfiction: History (an emphasis on taking an event or singular topic and expanding on it) Examples: Cleopatra’s Daughter, In Search of Amrit Kaur, The Curse of the Marquis de Sade
