Currently Looking For
After working with Howland Literary and Lookout Books while earning my BFA in Creative Writing and Certificate in Publishing from the University of North Carolina Wilmington, I am now building my own list of adult literary fiction and adult nonfiction. I am also a literary publicist at Pine State Publicity. More than anything, I am drawn to writing that lingers—on language, on character development, on the subtleties of character relationships, on place, on a niche subjects—and makes the details discovered there pop. I would love to read writing that explores boundaries: poets writing prose, region-specific writing about the coastal or “convenience store” south and the western United States, non-traditional narrators, unhinged women in fiction, and so on. Across the board, I’d love to see: In adult fiction, I’d love to see: Voice-driven stories that subvert reader expectations of their subject matter. In adult nonfiction, I’d love to see: Narrative nonfiction, memoir, and essay collections that blend personal narratives with research.
