That’s right. Beginning January 14th I am joining Greenhouse Literary as a full-time agent for middle-grade and young adult! I am thrilled to embark on this new adventure with Sarah Davies and the Greenhouse team. I will continue to represent my take-no-prisoners cadre of clients, as well as actively building my list.
I’ve enjoyed five superlative years at Scott Treimel NY, and it has been a privilege to collaborate with Scott and all the phenomenal STNY authors. I will miss them all, and look forward to seeing their work on bookshelves, e-readers, and billboards.
I highly recommend you check out Greenhouse’s website for more info about Sarah and Julia, Sarah’s blog, and submission guidelines.
What I’m Looking For: I’m especially eager for boy middle-grade (and yes, even boy y.a.!). Fast-paced/thrilling/heart-breaking stories, historicals, speculative fiction, sci-fi and fresh fantasy, villains with vulnerability, bad decisions with best intentions, boldly imagined worlds, striking imagery, finely composed and choreographed scenes, characters with history, stories about siblings, stories about middle America, and did I mention middle-grade for boys?
In the meantime, stay tuned folks: there will be more conferences, classes, talks, books, posts, and shenanigans to come!

Congratulations, John! They’re so lucky to have! Cheers to a great 2013!

Hey John! That is so wonderful! Congratulations and I wish you all the best on your new venture!
Congratulations, John! Working on your want list now. Greenhouse is awesome. Congrats to you both.
It’s so hard to resist sending in my submission RIGHT NOW, but I need to get it as perfect as I can before doing so. I’m a middle school teacher. The school year has slowed the editing process more than I expected.
I was excited to see you joined Greenhouse. It seems like a perfect fit! Please don’t fill up your list before I can join it!
congratulations!
