Currently Looking For
Amelia Appel is a Literary Agent with TriadaUS. She joined Triada after previously assisting at McIntosh & Otis, Inc. and Writers House. She is seeking adult fiction, non-fiction, and YA. For adult fiction, she is most interested in: Literary fiction (particularly if it has a great voice and explores complex relationships). Mystery (especially proper whodunits; bonus points for fun, close-quarter settings). Thriller (twisty, suspenseful, but no cop protagonists). Upmarket women’s fiction (preferably without a marriage- or children-related focus). Science fiction (no space operas). Fantasy (and magical realism). Horror (the scarier the better). Graphic novels (especially where the form adds further layers to the story). Projects with a smart, distinct voice, a fantastic setting to jump into, and/or a witty protagonist are all up her alley. She is not looking for romance novels but is open to rom-coms. For adult non-fiction, she’s most drawn to projects that relay new information in an engaging way, primarily in the areas of creative non-fiction, humor, sports, how-to, pop culture, and true crime. She is not looking to represent memoir. For YA, she is primarily looking for a combination of light and dark elements and stories where the protagonist is compelled to change. She’d also like to see smart rom-coms where the romance isn’t the central focus, and stories about growth and non-romantic relationships between friends or relatives. Bonus points if there’s a sport involved!
