Sara Megibow Dons Her Agenting Hat

Assistant to agent Kristin Nelson, Sara Megibow of The Nelson Literary Agency is now looking for her own clients. From the agency’s January newsletter:

In terms of genre, the Nelson Agency still reps romance (everything but inspirational and category), science fiction and fantasy, young adult, middle grade, chick lit, commercial and literary fiction and some memoir. Personally, I love super sexy and intelligent romances. In the sf/fantasy world, I am looking for the story and characters to be as compelling as the world. In terms of YA and MG, I am excited to see more projects set in the real world (as opposed to vampires or werewolves, although, of course, those are still okay). Finally, I am itching for some fabulous historical fiction (like MISTRESS OF THE ART OF DEATH) or multicultural fiction both for younger readers and the adult market.

There you have it. Submissions Guidelines can be found on their website.

I'm irritated because my posts won't publish.

  1. Marilyn, I agree with you. I met Sara at the Dallas conference in ’07 during my appointment with Kristin. Sara is cheerful and down to earth. Hmm, I wonder if she has a dog she can take to the office?

  2. Edie, I’m not sure they’ve even announced it on their blog yet. It came through in the agency newsletter yesterday, which I receive. I’m sure it’ll be on their blog later tonight or tomorrow.

    And, hey, now you know where to come for alllllll the news. If I ain’t got the scoop, I’ll pretend I do.

  3. This sounds like a fabulous author opportunity. I think the world of Kristin. I believe I met Sara at the Dallas conference in 07 as well. Very nice. Thanks for the update, Cindy. Hope you’re staying warm!
