I am open to fiction and non-fiction for adults. I will also be open to middle grade and young adult projects.

Some of my favourite recent books of fiction include: Theory and Practice by Michelle de Kretser, Sunbathingby Isobel Beech, Cold Enough for Snow by Jessica Au and An Exciting and Vivid Inner Life by Paul Dalla Rosa. I have a soft spot for smart chick-lit in the vein of Nora Ephron, Katherine Heiny and Candace Bushnell – think: love stories and chatty memoirs. In the world of non-fiction, I adore the work of Helen Garner, Anna Funder, Lech Blaine and Jia Tolentino but am open to projects of different kinds across culture, history, memoir, psychology and lifestyle. I’m always on the lookout for a great real-life middle grade story, in the vein of Nova Weetman and Rebecca Lim. I’m increasingly interested in fast-paced adventure stories across middle-grade and YA – big fan of Tristan Bancks and Mark Smith. I’m also drawn to LGBTQ stories for young adults, like Holden Sheppard’s Invisible Boys and Erin Gough’s Amelia Westlake. Above all, I am compelled by diverse, distinct and memorable voices.

I am not taking on illustration clients. I am not a good fit for science fiction, fantasy or horror.
