Vicky Weber is a literary agent with The Purcell Agency.
Vicky is a former elementary school teacher turned children’s book author. In addition to her own publications, she runs At Home Author, a coaching and consulting company that teaches current and aspiring authors how to get their books published and marketed for success.
She is seeking:
1. PICTURE BOOKS: Anything heartfelt, educational, or lighthearted.
2. YOUNG ADULT: Fantasy, Mystery, Horror, Thriller, Suspense,
3. MIDDLE GRADE: Fantasy, Mystery, Magic
4. ADULT: Fantasy and Thrillers.
Vicky specializes in picture books. She wants to be dropped into the moment and experience the story alongside the characters.
Picture Book Wishlist:
- Stories by underrepresented authors, both fiction and nonfiction. I especially love bilingual books.
- Books that are educational (fiction or nonfiction) in a way that makes learning fun, especially if they are musical in some way.
- Lighthearted, playful humor with heart.
- Familiar storylines with a fresh twist or perspective
- Rhyming stories must be exceptionally well written with perfect meter.
She also loves Young Adult and Fantasy.
ALWAYS SEEKING: Underrepresented authors, BIPOC, LGBTQ+
No erotica, romance, or memoirs please. Vicky is not the best fit for potty humor, graphic novels, or nonfiction adult books.
