I'm a writer from Boston who specializes in stories about misfits and subcultures. I'm seeking representation for MISFIT KINGS, a debut novel about identity told from the point of view of three misfit Elvis impersonators who learn that life can't be lived in another man's spotlight--not even the king's. Currently, I'm revising my second novel, THINGS SHE THOUGHT IMPOSSIBLE, about a female sleight of hand magician fighting to eke out a career in the traditionally male-dominated world of magic. I received an MA in creative writing from Boston University, and my short fiction has appeared in Narrative, Carve, and The Drum.
