S1E12: Suzie Townsend & Ten Questions with a Literary Agent

This week I interview my agent Suzie Townsend and ask her ten
listener questions, find out what she’s looking for in her inbox
and what to avoid when querying agents!


Prior to joining New Leaf, Suzie graduated film school, earned
her Masters of Education, taught high school English, and coached
a swim team. In her spare time, she read everything she could,
which prompted her move to publishing. She got her start as an
intern at FinePrint Literary Management where she was hired as an
assistant before making the move to literary agent. She’s been
part of the team at New Leaf Literary & Media since its
inception in 2012.


Suzie represents all brands of children’s and adult fiction. She
loves women’s fiction, all subgenres of romance, fantasy, and
crime fiction. On the children’s side, she particularly loves YA
and MG. Suzie loves strong characters and voice-driven stories
that break out of the typical tropes of their genres, and she’s
always looking for unique new voices in stories.
