Agent Information
Agent Bio

Maggie Sadler earned her joint Masters with honors in Comparative Literature and English from the historic University of St Andrews and her Masters in Literary Studies from Memorial University of Newfoundland.

Maggie primarily seeks adult literary fiction and upmarket fiction with distinct character voices, lyrical prose, and propulsive plots.

She loves books that quietly yet unapologetically challenge and deconstruct genre, craft, or structural conventions—books that take risks.

She appreciates a careful, restrained hand with magical elements, one that gently asks the reader to reconsider the boundary between the real and the fantastical.

Above all, Maggie craves raw, authentically human writing and wildly innovative concepts that have her whispering, “I needed this manuscript yesterday".
