Christopher Schelling of Selectric Artists

Christopher is always looking for commercial fiction, literary fiction, narrative nonfiction, graphic novels and graphic nonfiction (but *not* children's picture books), and new work from previously under-represented voices. Some categories have become tougher to sell - memoir, YA contemporary, science fiction (both adult and YA), domestic thrillers - so the bar is set even higher since he already has writers in those areas.

Some published titles: Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell, The Woman Inside by E. G. Scott, Born With Teeth by Kate Mulgrew
