My Manuscript Wish List®

Championing Artistic Expression

Every reader finds joy in discovering and getting lost in a great book—a compelling story that resonates deeply and stays with them long after the final page. Behind every great book and unforgettable story is the author, the creative force I would be honored to partner with. My hope is to collaborate with authors who have a genuine passion for crafting stories that captivate and inspire readers. Together, we would not only focus on bringing their stories to life but also work on building a successful and sustainable career—one that is both artistically fulfilling and strategically sound

Ta!

YES – I’m open to queries!
I’m in pursuit of both debut talent and seasoned storytellers with unique, and captivating perspectives. I’m actively seeking for:
• High-concept Thrillers (all sub-genres) — gripping, emotionally charged narratives, domestic or international, bold and imaginative
• Psychological and Domestic Suspense — Unpredictable stories – intricate layers – compelling twists.
• Upmarket and Commercial Fiction
• Supernatural stories featuring otherworldly elements
• Romance (all sub-genres) — heartfelt love stories – sweeping epics.
• Religious and faith-driven fiction—stories that explore spiritual journeys and themes of faith
• Narratives rooted in African folklore—vivid, culturally rich, steeped in myth, tradition, and contemporary resonance.
• Picture books and YA with folklore influences
• Non-fiction and Memoirs – authentic, thought-provoking – stories exploring personal journeys, and societal issues.
I accept queries by email only to he********@me*************.com
Please email a query letter, with genre and word count in first paragraph and the first 10 pages of your manuscript.
