About Maura

In 2001, Maura traded in her legal briefcase for a manuscript bag and joined the Denise Marcil Literary Agency.  In 2008, Maura became an agent with Don Congdon Associates.  Maura represents writers of narrative non-fiction, women's fiction, young adult, middle grade, self-help and cookbooks and is seeking literary works, women's fiction, multicultural voices, and any well-written novels with quirky characters and/or unique plots and settings.  She's especially interested in works for both the young adult and middle grade markets.  As to non-fiction, Maura is seeking books on popular science (especially space), pop culture, lifestyle, sports, and fun/interesting works that fall into the humor category.
