Collapse section Fiction Open In fiction, the most important things for me are a strong sense of place, convincing characters and confident, immersive writing. I am looking for contemporary fiction that explores the complexities of modern relationships and actively engages with ideas and the world around us. I am equally keen to find literary fiction with an unusual hook that surprises and delights me, whether that be through speculative elements or unexpected characters and settings.I am also looking for crime fiction, especially anything character driven and steeped in atmosphere, I love a small town but would also love to see crime novels that are set in unusual locations. In historical fiction I am open to anything that feels gritty and innovative and introduces the reader to the darker, lesser-known parts of our past.Audience:Open to a broad Audience.Genres: General Open to all/most Subgenres, including: Historical Mystery/Crime Subgenre: CrimeLengths: NovelStyles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Literary, Mainstream.Topics: Open to all/most Topics including...

Never pay an agent an up-front fee. That is not how literary agent representation works. Agents earn a commission only after they've landed a publishing deal for you. Also, agents scarcely ever contact writers. If an agent that you haven't queried contacts you about representation, be suspicious. Look up the agent and check if the email address is correct for that agent/agency.
