My Manuscript Wish List®

Hello! I am a senior editor at Entangled Publishing, with experience editing on all of Entangled’s imprints and working with a variety of different authors, from debuts to bestsellers.

I am acquiring commercial genre fiction with a strong romantic element, in YA (Mayhem and Mischief imprints) and adult (Amara imprint).

A high-concept plot, brisk pacing, and strong voice are a must.

I am always interested in stories that feature characters with diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, and characters across the spectrum of sexual orientation and gender identity.

Regardless of plot or genre, I am always in search of characters who jump off the page–make me love them, hate them, or love to hate them.

Can’t wait to read your book!
