LOOKING FOR: ADULT FICTION

Louise Buckley  has worked in publishing for well over a decade. She was inspired to enter the publishing industry after completing an MA in Creative Writing and then spent a hugely enjoyable year working as a bookseller for Waterstones, wishing that she could have a hand in publishing books.

After a year working at Dorling Kindersley, she then spent almost five years working in the commercial fiction division at Pan Macmillan, where she published a mix of commercial bestsellers and award-winning authors.

Most recently, she was an Associate Literary Agent at Zeno Agency Ltd. As an agent she represented a roster of commercial and literary fiction, including Anne Griffin’s When All is Said, which spent five weeks at number one in Ireland and sold into 17 territories.

She is delighted to be working with Hannah at Hannah Sheppard Literary Agency.
Louise is looking for:-

Literary and upmarket fiction that focusses on the underdog, the repressed, the suppressed. Louise is especially interested in novels that represent working-class people or children going through difficult circumstances (think Shuggie Bain by Douglas Stuart, My Name is Leon by Kit de Waal or Boys Don’t Cry by FÍona Scarlett).

Irish literary and book club fiction. Think Claire Keegan, Louise Kennedy or Anne Griffin.

In commercial fiction she loves novels set during the Second World War, such as The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah, The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christi Lefteri or The Midwife of Auschwitz by Anna Stuart. Louise recently read and loved The Last List of Mabel Beaumont by Laura Pearson and would love to see anything in the same ‘older person going on a journey’ category, a more recent The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.
Louise had a lot of fun publishing a ‘pet fiction’ novel as an editor (Molly and the Cat Café) and would love to find an author who can write an Alfie the Doorstep Cat/Dog.

She has a soft spot for novels featuring time-travel or parallel universes, a ‘what if’ that plays around with conventions. At the literary end this would be books like Life After Life by Kate Atkinson, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes or This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. At the more commercial end Louise loved Wrong Place, Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister, Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and Oona Out of Order by Martina Montimore. She also enjoys novels set in the real world but featuring a hefty dose of magic or the supernatural. They can be commercial or literary, present-day or historical. Think Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch, Threadneedle by Cari Thomas, A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness or The Gifts by Liz Hyder. And also cosy fantasy in the vein of Legends and Lattes or The House in the Cerulean Sea.

Cosy or humorous crime. Recently, Louise absolutely loved Over My Dead Body by Maz Evans. When she was an editor Louise published the hit Luckiest Girl Alive by Jessica Knoll and would love to represent incisive, intelligent suspense written by authors such as Jessica Knoll and Gillian Flynn, or something a little more subversive and blackly comic like My Sister, the Serial Killer by Oyinkan Braithwaite.
More generally, Louise would also love to see novels with a disabled protagonist or someone (like herself) who is living with an invisible disability. As an ex-primary school teacher, she also warmly welcomes submissions from teachers, especially if the submission falls into one of the other categories she has listed. Following-on from this, she enjoys reading stories that follow a ‘beating the system’ narrative.

Horror. Louise is currently really enjoying the horror resurgence and would love some more horror for her list. She is looking for all types of horror from the more literary, suspenseful horror along the lines of Andrew Michael Hurley to the more commercial like Witchcraft for Wayward Girls by Grady Hendrix. Louise is also a big fan of horror mash-ups, especially body transformation horror such as Nightbitch, and horror mixed with, say, vampires, in the vein of Hungerstone or The Lamb. She would also love to see some dark academia. Think If We Were Villains or In My Dreams I Hold a Knife, and is a huge fan of gothic horror, so would love to see something that’s a modern-day Shirley Jackson or Rebecca.

Louise is NOT looking for:
-romance
-romantasy
-epic, traditional fantasy
-space opera
-straightforward women’s fiction
-children’s fiction of any kind
-non-fiction

Louise would like you to submit a covering letter, 1 page synopsis and the first three chapters or 5,000 words of your manuscript in a single word document, whichever is shorter.

(In addition to the paid sessions, Louise is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print). 

By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting.

The submission deadline is: Wednesday 25th June 2025

Do you avoid difficult conversations? 
Maybe you avoid certain topics or uncomfortable conversations with certain people. 
Whatever the reason, avoiding 'clearing the air' will almost always have long term, negative consequences. Even if you can't see the impact of not dealing with the pressing issue, the resentment can build up until one day, someone will explode. 
During this two hour session, we will look at:
What is a difficult conversation?
What makes difficult conversations even more difficult?
How to prepare for difficult conversations
Understanding and managing emotions - awareness
Seeking help
Providing constructive feedback
After the session, you will be able to recognise your own barriers to approaching difficult conversations, prepare for meetings to minimise negative outcomes and manage emotions, both yours and the other persons more effectively.

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">This course has been designed to help anyone who manages staff to deal with the difficult employees that make life more difficult than necessary, and to do so in a positive and productive way.</p>

<ul fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">First we show you the most common types of <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Deflectors </strong>- that&#39;s people who don&#39;t share your ideas of team effort, and whose lack of dedication can only sap the strength of your team.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Then we move on to <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Non-Team Players</strong>. These people may contribute, but they also have their own personal agendas.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Next, it&#39;s <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Negative Personalities</strong>: how to prevent the different types of these people from dragging down your team&#39;s morale.</li>
<li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: border-box;">Finally, it&#39;s <strong fr-original-style="" style="font-weight: 700; box-sizing: border-box;">Trouble Makers</strong>. Here, we don&#39;t mean the types of outright rebels who can be dealt with through a disciplinary process, but the more insidious type, who work away from your gaze and sow discontent and disorder. They can often be beaten quite easily!</li>
</ul>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">You should find many ideas in this course to help you, now and in the future, to take situations that often feel frustrating and turn them into positive outcomes.</p>

<p fr-original-style="" style="color: var(--text); font-size: var(--font-size); box-sizing: border-box;">
If you manage a team, you will encounter difficult employees along the way, some of whom can leave you lost for ideas. So if you want to solve a current problem, or gear up to be able to deal with problem people in the future, then this course is for you!

Course Objectives:
After taking this course, you'll be able to:
Identify difficult employee types
Use strategies to manage DEFLECTORS
Use strategies to manage NON-TEAM PLAYERS
Use strategies to manage NEGATIVE PERSONALITIES
Use strategies to manage TROUBLE MAKERS
Apply these strategies to problems you may have at the moment  Here's a great new course that every line manager will value! That's because although most employees are absolutely fine, and some are great, there's often a small contingent who cause more trouble than the rest combined!

These people can present real problems because while their actions are often minor -- or "under the radar" -- their effect is negative, long term -- and destabilizing. This course has been created to solve this problem! It's written by people with many years of experience in handling these situations, and every one of our many scenarios has solutions that have been used -- with success -- in real life. It's also deliberately structured so that you can use it to address the difficult people you need to deal with right now. And of course, you can use its lessons as a permanent guide to managing difficult people for many years to come!
 Learn How to Deal With Difficult Employees This course has been designed to help anyone who manages staff to deal with the difficult employees that make life more difficult than necessary, and to do so in a positive and productive way. 
First we show you the most common types of Deflectors - that's people who don't share your ideas of team effort, and whose lack of dedication can only sap the strength of your team.
Then we move on to Non-Team Players. These people may contribute, but they also have their own personal agendas.
Next, it's Negative Personalities: how to prevent the different types of these people from dragging down your team's morale.
Finally, it's Trouble Makers. Here, we don't mean the types of outright rebels who can be dealt with through a disciplinary process, but the more insidious type, who work away from your gaze and sow discontent and disorder. They can often be beaten quite easily!
 You should find many ideas in this course to help you, now and in the future, to take situations that often feel frustrating and turn them into positive outcomes.  Target Audience: 
If you manage a team, you will encounter difficult employees along the way, some of whom can leave you lost for ideas. So if you want to solve a current problem, or gear up to be able to deal with problem people in the future, then this course is for you!
  Pre-Course Requirements 
There are no prior requirements, and even if you don't manage a team, you may enjoy seeing how difficult employees affect a team -- and how to deal with them.
  Career Path: Just think: how will your management career benefit if you are not distracted by the kind of staff members who just seem to make things so much more difficult than they should be? Learn how to identify - and deal with - these people, in a simple, structured way that will solve a lot of your problems, now and well into the future!  Course Outline:
