Sophie Cudd – Editor

I'm a literary agent at The Book Group, where I love to work collaboratively with my clients. On the creative side of my job, I specialize in developmental edits (particularly with an eye towards plot and structure), as well as evaluating query letters alongside drafting submission pitch letters.

For developmental editing, my taste and expertise leans commercial - bring me any romance or mystery/thriller! I tend to not engage with more literary works. In nonfiction, I love anything from memoir to self-help. Really anything in this lane gets me excited. I also represent and edit children's picture books, but no middle grade or young adult titles.

For query and pitch letters, I can evaluate letters and submissions of any genre.

I'm clear, kind and direct in all of my professional relationships, and I aspire to make any book I work on the best it can be. I'm excited to read your story!
