SABRINA LUNDBERG,

LITERARY AGENT

 

Sabrina is open to any genre across all age ranges. She loves to learn and grow her perspectives--bonus points if she can laugh while doing it! 

​

Sabrina is looking for:

 

  • Stories that convey subtle wisdoms that teach something or leaves her perspective forever altered

  • Well-rounded characters with moral ambiguity 

  • Fantasies that are based on non-Western-European lore

  • Wordless picture books

​

For kidlit, Sabrina wants something that can be enjoyed by adults, as well. This could be via a relevant and profound realization, a vital reminder of what is important, something uplifting or inspiring in a realistic way, or simply by being funny! 

​

Note: Sabrina is a self-acknowledged science dork. Make sure if you use medical or other science-y elements, you get your facts straight.
