Felice Laverne The last time the agent had an active listing on Duotrope, the agent was affiliated with ArtHouse Literary Agency (see other agents at this agency). Permanently Closed: This agent is no longer accepting queries (June 2025). We provide the following information as an archive. About Felice’s publishing career has always been rooted in championing bold voices and writers from marginalized communities. After obtaining her bachelor’s degree in English, Creative Writing, from Georgia State University, she started her career at About Words Agency directly after college where she worked as an agent until leaving to complete her master’s degree in Publishing at Kingston University in London, England. There, Felice specialized in Diversity & Inclusion in Publishing, which drove her career-long passion for marginalized voices the world had never heard before. After years of then partnering with major houses as a book editor and ghostwriter, including having edited phenomenal big-name books such as Zerlina Maxwell’s The End of White Politics (Hachette) and Paola Ramos’ Finding Latinx: In Search of the Voices Redefining Latino Identity (Vintage), among so many others, she is now back to her roots as a literary agent with a growing list of bold titles. Country United States Collapse section Fiction Closed Felice focuses on contemporary and futuristic literary, upmarket, and commercial fiction. She is looking for fiction that explores the subtleties and complexities of language, while still being firmly rooted in modern or futuristic living - whether character or plot-driven. She is intrigued by books that introduce readers to a new world, make us think differently about one we already know, or tap into the cultural climate. With this in mind, she’s eager to find bold voices from the African, Asian and Latin diasporas that explore these cultures deeply, asking questions of how they interact with, are affected by, and impact the rest of the world. She loves speculative fiction, and a book that offers sharp social commentary interwoven brilliantly throughout the narrative will keep her up all night reading.Audience:Open to a broad Audience, including: Adults, All ethnic groups/populations, All genders, All sexual identities.Genres: General Subgenre: Women's Fiction Fantasy Open to all/most SubgenresLengths: NovelStyles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Literary, Mainstream, Satirical.Topics: Open to all/most Topics including...
