Rebecca Matte
Hello and thank you for thinking of me for your work! For more detail on what I am seeking, please take a look at my page on the Bradford Literary Agency website. I will be closing to queries temporarily on August 1 to allow time for a refreshing and relaxing vacation. I will reopen upon my return on August 15.
I only represent adult (and select YA) romance, science fiction and fantasy. I am particularly interested in stories by and about queer people, and people with disabilities including chronic illness. I am most drawn to character driven stories in both the real and fantastical worlds, with narratives of self-discovery and reinvention. I adore romance in every form and am pretty much never sick of tropes. I also love friendships, and will instantly fall for stories with incredible, well-developed friendships that are prized as highly as romance.
I am not the right person for anything younger than YA (MG, PB, CB), or any sort of non-fiction. I also don't tend to enjoy horror or grimdark -- I read for escapism, not reality.
