Jenny Lewis
Contracts and Royalties Manager, Site Designer
Jenny graduated from Clark University with a degree in English Literature and Political Science. Jenny started her publishing career at Writers House Literary Agency, and has also worked with Scholastic Books, as an independent writer and editor, and as the manager of a children’s bookstore. Although her taste is varied, Jenny leans into character-driven fiction told with humor, whimsy, and heart (and she’ll give bonus points to anything with an authentically messy female protagonist).
Keith Stillman
Rights Associate
Keith is a former writing teacher and bookseller. He graduated from the NYU Summer Publishing Institute and the Writer’s House Internship Program, and holds a Master of Arts in Professional Writing from Kennesaw State University. He has a diverse taste in books, but tends to lean toward upmarket crime and horror fiction with a tilt toward the bizarre and fantastic.
