Daniel: popular culture, narrative non-fiction, memoir, and humor, and literary fiction

Stephanie: page-turning fiction and in non-fiction: books that make our lives better, easier or more interesting—either through laughter, advice or the sharing of a true story

Lindsey: narrative nonfiction, memoir, lifestyle, and literary and commercial fiction. She is drawn to projects with strong narrators, obscure journeys, and political backbones, but she is an eclectic reader and will take on any project that she's passionate about.

Monika (Associate Agent): pop culture, humor, narrative non-fiction, fashion, foodie, and music titles. She loves to represent books that makes people's lives just a few degrees sunnier, be those quirky memoirs, satirical humor collections, or old-fashioned cookbooks. On the fiction side, she stays up far too late reading literary mysteries and suspense

Danielle: a bit old-fashioned in her tastes: she likes ruminative narrators with snappy elocutionary style, awkward heroes, and anything set in damp castles.

Elizabeth: Young adult, middle grade & crossover books for young readers, memoirs, multicultural perspectives, narrative/creative nonfiction, spiritual adventures, travel writing and literary fiction are her favorites, though she’ll read anything that will transport her to another place, another time, or another life when she must stay put

Kerry: looking for great YA and middle-grade fiction, both commercial and literary, with a fresh voice and compelling story (although she tends to shy away from the paranormal) and enjoys the occasional picture book. In non-fiction, Kerry is most drawn to health and lifestyle books with a prescriptive focus.

Julie Villar (Administrative Asst): likes radical histories, travel memoirs, biographies and any kind of fiction

Courteney Ervin (Special Projects Assistant): literary fiction, YA and middle-grade fiction, and graphic novels.
