| Sandra Bishop, Agent, MacGregor Literary |
My list is fairly well established and full, but I remain open to talking with established authors who are in need of career management, or new authors/writers who have put in their “10,000 hours,” and are writing in the current sweet spots of CBA -- historical romance or contemporary suspense. Also interested in considering well-written non-fiction projects from authors with an established platform and thought-leading idea.
Interested in some YA, will consider Women's Fiction, and an occasional gift book.
No children's books, science fiction, incomplete first fiction manuscripts, or erotica.
