Jonathan Rosen
The Seymour Agency
My Manuscript Wish List®
I’m an agent at The Seymour Agency, and looking to represent a wide variety of genres.
In Kidlit, I want YA, Graphic Novels, non-fiction, and will consider PBs and Chapter Books. (Not looking for MG at this time)
In adult, Mysteries (All types), Thrillers, RomComs, Historical Fiction, Non-Fiction
Being of Jewish-Mexican descent, I will always have an eye out for diverse voices, and in particular ones that reflect my background.
Humor is good in any genre, and do love quirky. My tastes run to extremes. I can like dark in one book, while also wanting light and hopeful in another. I really do like a wide variety.
Fun facts about me:
I have lived in several different countries, and moved around a lot as a kid. I co-host a weekly YouTube show where we interview many different celebrities.

Vital Info
I’d like the next…
I would love to see humorous crime or caper stories. Think Snatch, and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
RomCom – can be something fun with relationship-building like When Harry Met Sally, or even outlandish like There’s Something About Mary. Just make me laugh.
