Agent: The CAT Agency, Inc.
Bio:
Christie Megill is a literary agent with the CAT Agency. She joined The CAT Agency in 2022. She’s overjoyed to be working with artists and children’s book authors, offering long-term support in their careers and creative journeys. Storytelling is her passion, no matter the medium.
Christie comes from a background in elementary education and before pursuing education, she previously worked as an editor at an academic press in New York City, as a volunteer at the Housing Works Bookstore in SoHo, and as a bookseller at the bygone Borders Books and Music in Columbus Circle. She holds a BA in English Literature from Fordham University.
When she’s not losing herself in a good book, she spends her time writing novels for grownups, making butter-laden desserts, and hiking in the woods with her three children.
What I'm Looking For:
Portfolios for children's books, ranging from board book, picture books, chapter book interiors, middle grade and young adult covers. Manuscripts and dummies for board book, picture books, and chapter books, plus the select middle grade and young adult graphic novel. While my tastes are broad, I'm not a good fit for stories about grief.
