Literary Agent Michelle Brower will be chatting live on the Editor Unleashed forum tomorrow 3-4 p.m. EST. The chat is in a members-only forum so you might want to register ahead of time (it’s free).
Michelle Brower is an agent with Wendy Sherman Associates who’s on the lookout for talented new writers.
I recently asked Michelle: What genres do you represent, and is there anything specific that you’d like to find in your inbox right now?
I represent a wide range of genres, but nothing too category, so I’m not looking for Romance, Fantasy, or Sci Fi. I am very actively looking for upmarket thrillers right now—they can have a horror element, or be more realistic and personal. A great example of something I’ve loved recently is In the Woods by Tana French. I’m also really looking for a commercial, edgy YA series, and nonfiction with a nostalgic, Gen X bent (like Chuck Klosterman or Sloane Crosley).
Read the full interview here.
And check back in to the forum tomorrow for the chat! She’ll be offering instructive feedback on five queries posted on her thread and answering questions.
