 ABOUT THE AGENT: Jael Morrill joined The Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency in July 2025 after a year-long internship with the agency. She graduated from Pikes Peak State College in 2021 with a degree in history. Before interning with the agency, she had previously worked as a research assistant for a historian. When not reading, she can be found drawing, painting, tangled up in all manner of fiber and textile art projects, and working on writing stories with her spouse. Jael represents adult and young adult fiction and nonfiction. Jael IS SEEKING: NONFICTION: Jael would love to see books that focus on rarely told history, have a focus on cultural anthropology, or have to do with the arts. Memoirs from marginalized voices are especially welcome. Topics covering disability, queer experiences, and those hurt by fundamentalist movements are especially close to her heart, though she always welcomes learning something new. ADULT AND YOUNG-ADULT FICTION: Jael is eager to represent richly immersive science fiction and fantasy. She loves seeing fresh takes on noir thrillers, horror with hope at the core of the story, and campy mysteries—especially if they contain speculative elements. Stories that contain queer characters, whimsical world-building, and witty but grounded dialogue are often her favorite things to read. NOT FOR JAEL: Please do not send children's lit or genre romance (romantic elements within the story are fine!). HOW TO SUBMIT: Please direct queries to [email protected] Nonfiction: please send your query, a 1-2 page synopsis, table of contents, and sample chapter. For history, please additionally send a sample bibliography. Fiction: please send your query, a 1-2 page synopsis, and the first 25 pages of your project. Jael endeavors to respond to queries within 6 weeks.  Attend a writers conference in 2025 - 2026:
