I'll be posting books I've acquired, books I've edited, and books I wish I'd published, as well as outlining what submissions I'm looking for

We are utterly thrilled that @FootmanHanako's incredible debut #Mongrel is on the @waterstones Debut Fiction Prize 2024 shortlist!
Huge congratulations to Hanako and her fellow shortlistees ๐๐ธ #WDFP
I've moved to @DoubledayUK as commissioning editor!
Send me your literary fiction submissions, especially those that have a speculative edge (think Olga Ravn, Julia Armfield, Bora Chung) and/or literary translation.
