LOOKING FOR: MG, YA, ADULT FICTION, ADULT NON-FICTION, NON-FICTION FOR 7+ Megan Carroll is looking for writers in a variety of areas, and from a wide range of backgrounds – she is particularly keen to hear from Black, Asian, and LGBTQIA+ writers. Her main areas of focus this year are adult fiction and non-fiction, as well as non-fiction for 7+, and MG and YA fiction. In Fiction, Megan is keen to see high-concept love stories (think The Flat Share or The Lock In) for both commercial and reading group readers. She’d love to see those familiar romance tropes – enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, love triangles, forbidden love etc. – with underrepresented characters at the centre. She is also looking for historical fiction and gothic horror (think Laura Purcell, Stacey Halls and Silvia Moreno-Garcia) – anything that has a creepy, uneasy undertone is likely for Megan’s list. Megan is also actively looking for upmarket fiction and would love to see layered family drama, contemporary stories about life today and darkly comic novels that explore a specific time, place or experience. In Non-Fiction, Megan is keen to hear from experts in their field talking about topics relating to film, music, true crime, popular culture, history and issues from largely unrepresented perspectives. She is keen to see memoir, narrative non-fiction and essay collections. In Children’s and YA, she is keen to see contemporary YA with humour, and romance at the heart – fun and emotional stories that appeal to the interests and issues of the teenage readers. She’d also love to see thrillers and horror stories for this age group too. It’s unlikely that high fantasy novels for YA readers will be right for her, but she is keen to see stories with fantasy elements in a real world setting. On the younger end, Megan is looking for funny, contemporary middle grade – think Louise Rennison and Karen McCombie – and anything creepy and spooky for 8-12 year old readers too. She’d love to find something like Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events and is keen to find original adventure stories in both fantasy and realistic settings. Megan 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. (In addition to the paid sessions, Megan is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers.

Private equity refers to investments made in private companies, where investors provide capital in exchange for equity ownership. Private equity refers to investments made in private companies, where investors provide capital in exchange for equity ownership. It’s a form of alternative investment that can help companies accelerate growth, expand operations, or make strategic acquisitions. For UK companies, private equity can be particularly attractive because it offers access to significant capital, strategic guidance, and industry expertise that can fuel their growth ambitions. Private equity CFOs are strategic leaders who strive to raise their company’s profile, engage with new talent, and attract the attention of private equity investors by creating an engaging investor story. CFOs with PE experience are growth-oriented, adopting a forward-looking approach, instead of looking through the rear-view mirror as financial often do. Private equity CFOs are multi-dimensional with a growing list of responsibilities. Many are set to become tomorrow’s CEOs, laying the groundwork by engaging with internal and external stakeholders. Organisations seeking private equity investment are increasingly recruiting CFOs during the early stages of their life cycle. CFOs with private equity house experience will drive value and nurture rich working relationships by boosting the company’s financial credibility with potential investors and traditional financial institutions. Companies seeking private equity funding in highly regulated industries, such as financial services and health care, will want to recruit a CFO who is an expert in that field. CFOs with industry-specific regulatory knowledge will understand the nuances and challenges that their company must contend with.
