Save this for when you're building your query list.

Hailey

If people tell you your writing is "too literary" for genre, Hailey Stephens might be the agent who says "good."

She's the most literary-leaning agent on our team. She's looking for BIPOC mystery and thriller, horror, and anything speculative, written with care at the sentence level.

Drop your genre in the comments and tell us what you're working on. 👇

I've recently released my occult suspense novel but I would LOVE to find the right agent and see it go to a big publishing house! ☺️

I love to hear that there’s space for genre writing that leans more literary. I find that my prose tends to do as such, even in my fantasy projects. Which is why I am excited to query Shannon with my debut!

Hello! I write contemporary romance. I am currently querying TIDE ME OVER, a 78k word, dual POV, standalone with series potential that blends the quirky banter of And Now, Back to You by B.K. Borison and complicated family dynamics of Just For The Summer by Abby Jimenez. Spirited Elle Diaz hops a ferry to find her estranged mother and has a disastrous meet-cringe with local grump Austen Bradford. TIDE ME OVER is my debut novel.
