New Literary Agent Alert: Louise Buckley of Zeno Literary Agency
Literary agent alerts (like this one with Louise Buckley of Zeno Literary Agency) are golden opportunities for new writers because each one is a literary agent who is likely building their client list.
About Louise: Before joining the Zeno Agency (a London-based agency) in early 2016, Louise spent six years working as an editor for Pan Macmillan and Dorling Kindersley Publishers. Find her on Twitter: @LouiseMBuckley.
She is seeking: In fiction, Louise is looking for compelling protagonists, protagonists that know what they want. She is also looking for novels that ask important questions in a bold and imaginative way. She loves reading all genres, from action-packed thrillers and cozy crime novels, to high-concept science fiction or emotionally powerful young adult. She loves reading epic historical fiction and anything with magic. (See a list of her favorite books online.)
She is not looking for children’s picture books, poetry, or nonfiction.
How to submit: Do not query her until the agency submission guidelines say the agency is back open. Keep her on your Master List of agents to query.
