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.
