Hi There!

I’m Maeve (formerly Em Lysaght) and I’m an agent at Copps Literary Services. I cut my teeth in publishing at publishing houses like Scholastic and Insight Editions representing foreign and subsidiary rights and agented with Ladderbird Literary before joining CLS in 2022.
I read widely across genre and age range and I’m particularly looking for queer and POC authors taking on genre tropes in commercial fiction.
