Hello! Thank you very much for submitting your work. As a reminder of what I'd like to see:

In fiction, I am looking for stories in the accessible literary, upmarket, and book-club space, often with a strong female focus, as well as genre titles in the fantasy, speculative, and historical arenas. Anything written with beautiful prose, a high-stakes plot, and/or a folkloric, legendary, or mythical grounding is likely to be a good bet. In the YA/Crossover space  I'd like to see clever world-building, emotional (and flawed) characters, and preferably a romantic sub-plot—or main plot—as well as new twists on old tropes, high concepts (an idea you can pitch in a sentence), and perspectives we rarely get to see.

Some of my recent favourite reads include The Safekeep by Yael Van Der Wouden, You Made a Fool of Death with Your Beauty by Akwaeke Emezi, Strong Female Character by Fern Brady, and Swordcrossed by Freya Marske.

High on my Wishlist currently are:

  • YA fantasy with a great hook
  • Adult fantasy and romantasy with a darker feel (think Alix E. Harrow or Ava Reid), urban or second-world
  • Voice-led, female-focused literary fiction (think THE GUEST by Emma Cline or LUSTER by Raven Leilani)

I am not currently seeking any non-fiction projects. I am also likely not to be the best fit for:

  • Commercial women's fiction
  • Rom-coms
  • Contemporary Romance
  • Straight thriller/suspense novels
  • Sci-fi
  • Titles over 120,000 words
  • Any stories centred on eating disorders or the death of a child

I'll look forward to reading!

Clara
