Agent, Aevitas Creative Management
Amy Thrall Flynn joined Aevitas Creative Management as Senior Agent in 2024. Before that she was an agent with Rubin Pfeffer Content. She represents children's book writers and illustrators in both fiction and nonfiction, from picture books for the very young to graphic formats to YA novels. She has 20 years of experience in publishing, including over a decade as a children's book editor with Houghton Mifflin Books for Children.
Amy believes in the power of books to connect, inspire, and affirm the lives of young people. She is looking for unforgettable voices and fresh perspectives in all genres.
My interests include child-centered picture book narratives that reflect the authentic concerns and interests of children, as well as concept books and nonfiction for readers 2-8. In the middle grade space I look for humor, voice, and emotion in traditional or graphic novel treatments. I am drawn to contemporary, realistic YA over speculative/sci fi/fantasy.
