What Katie is looking for
Katie represents and is seeking voice-driven literary to upmarket fiction and narrative non-fiction. Across all genres, she’s looking for books with a heartbeat and sense of purpose. She’ll always be interested in the darker and weirder side of human history, previously under- or misrepresented experiences, and narratives that contribute to a larger cultural conversation. While Katie loves speculative elements or magical realism in her adult upmarket or literary fiction, she’s not looking for sci-fi or epic, high, or urban fantasy. Friendly reminder that if you don’t see your genre on the drop down below, she’s not looking for it at this time.
