- Looking for
- Grounded fantasy with light magical elements edging toward speculative or dystopic, with exceptionally strong world-building. Romantic fantasy with compelling protagonists, particularly a queer male lead or a non-binary/gender-neutral vampire story. Romantic fiction with a strong USP, enemies-to-lovers dynamics, competitive settings, and crossover with horror or crime. General fiction exploring friendship over time, sibling relationships, ensemble casts, and modern loose retellings of classics or plays — especially an own-voices retelling of The Crucible from Abigail Williams' perspective. In non-fiction: narrative memoir with a fresh angle, pop and fan culture exploring why topics trend online, and cookbooks from authors with strong social media platforms.

Her clients include Emily Bootle, Holly Friend, Selasi Gbormittah, and Olivia Hayward, among others. She has a particular enthusiasm for own-voices writers from underrepresented backgrounds and has flagged a direct request for a retelling of The Crucible from Abigail Williams' perspective.
