I’m always on the hunt for new and exciting projects, but what I’m looking for does shift and change a bit based on what I already rep, the market, and whatever I’m personally ruminating at the moment. Right now, that’s:

• YA and MG novels that deal with faith, loss of faith, and other “big questions” kinds of books. I remember my teen years being about questioning and figuring out exactly what I believed in. I’d also love to see a novel about a kid exploring political issues, and perhaps how one’s political identity contrasts with one’s parents’.
• I’d love to see some more ghosts. Ghost stories have always been a favorite of mine, and while there have been so many, I’d love to see something new and original. MG, YA, adult—it’s all good!
• I’m still eager to find a great tennis novel. I’ve seen some good books over the years, but nothing that I connected with enough to take it on.
• On the nonfiction side, I’m still very eager to find more pop science. I’d love a Sixth Extinction or a What If? I’d really love a book about the space program, particularly women involved with it.

That’s just a brief list of the things I’m most interested in at the moment, but as usual, if you’ve got something brilliant, I’d love to see it!
