Submitting Your Work to Vicky Weber
Vicky's wishlist strongly favors high-concept, commercial fiction with upmarket prose, high stakes, emotional intensity, and deep characterization. In adult, New Adult, and YA she is especially interested in horror, thriller and suspense, including psychological tension, haunted-house and gothic horror, maritime horror, and socially focused horror.
She also wants dark and high fantasy, romantasy, horror-inflected romance, supernatural mysteries, and historical fiction with gothic, horror, or suspense elements.
For middle grade, she likes unusual, high-concept stories grounded in the real world. For board books, picture books, and chapter books, she wants highly commercial, giftable stories with humor, memorable characters, fresh takes on familiar concepts, and text that gives illustrators room to contribute.
She also represents illustrator-only clients and is interested in self-published authors whose books have demonstrated strong sales.
