Lisa Gouldy The last time the agent had an active listing on Duotrope, the agent was affiliated with Corvisiero Literary Agency (see other agents at this agency). Permanently Closed: This agent is no longer accepting queries (July 2026). We provide the following information as an archive. About Lisa Gouldy is a passionate writer and reader of stories that stretch the imagination and reveal important truths about the world around us. Trained as an attorney, Lisa moved from the legal world into the literary one nearly a decade ago in search of stories less constrained by reality. The literary community in Seattle welcomed her in, and Lisa connected with writers everywhere from coffee shops to Hugo House, from PNWA to SCBWI, from conferences to critique groups. Assisting others with their writing journeys, it turned out, was as much fun as creating her own. As an associate literary agent with the Corvisiero Literary Agency, Lisa guides writers through the publishing process the way she once helped clients access the courts. Country United States AI Policy Unknown AI policy Fiction Closed Lisa loves stories with lyrical writing, memorable characters, and fast-paced plots that keep her guessing. In adult fiction, she devours upmarket and literary titles with complex protagonists, and has a special hunger for stories with speculative elements. Her sweet spot is a novel with a world much like ours, but with fantasy, sci-fi, or dystopian additions that illuminate real-life issues in a unique way. In children’s literature, Lisa particularly enjoys middle grade fantasy and young adult novels with a speculative bent, as well as picture books that make her laugh or cry.Audience:Open to a broad Audience.Genres: General Fantasy Open to all/most Subgenres Horror Open to all/most Subgenres Science Fiction Open to all/most Subgenres, including: DystopianLengths: NovelStyles:Open to all/most Styles, including: Literary, Mainstream.Topics: Open to all/most Topics.Submissions:Method: QueryTracker.
