Marisa Cleveland

Hi! Thanks for finding me here. I’m looking for a manuscript I can’t put down until the last page and can’t stop discussing. Voice is definitely key for me. I have to be able to listen (vocally and on the page) to that writer through revisions and edits and book after book. I want to find characters I want as my best friends and partners-in-crime long after the story ends, whether it’s in this world or an alternate universe.

I’m always on the lookout for character-driven stories with strong female protagonists, no matter what age range, and if you’re curious about the authors I already represent, I love to spotlight them on my Instagram: thereisnobox.

Please see Query Manager for a current list of age ranges and genres I’m hoping to represent. I am not the right agent at any time for horror or true crime.
