I am actively building my list and welcome submissions across women’s fiction, romance, book club, crime and thriller, and historical.
My reading tastes are broad, but at the moment I am particularly keen to see:
Big, sweeping love stories
Voice-driven romcoms
Psychological thrillers with lots of twists
Upmarket crime and mystery especially small-town set
Horror and speculative for a general audience
Mystery and romance crossed with other genres
Time travel especially in romance
Golden-Age-inspired mysteries
Please refer to The Ampersand Agency’s submission guidelines, and kindly note that I do not accept submissions other than via my agency email address: abigail@theampersandagency.co.uk
Please note that I do not represent science-fiction, fantasy, children’s, graphic novels, screenplays, poetry, short stories or non-fiction.
