Adult Nonfiction, Adult Fiction

For thirty years, Stephany Evans has represented nonfiction writers in the areas of health and wellness, spirituality, memoir, popular science, food, and narrative nonfiction. She’s especially interested in women’s issues, environment/sustainability, and her particular passion — running (inspired by her authors Pam Reed and Kathrine Switzer, Stephany has run twenty+ marathons — including Boston, four times, and is now establishing her ultrarunning creds).

Stephany’s nonfiction authors have run the gamut, from “The Nation’s Leading Midwife” Ina May Gaskin (Ina May’s Guide to Childbirth), the first female lineage holder of a 2,000-year-old lineage from India, Acharya Shunya (Sovereign Self), to sustainable farmer Forrest Pritchard (Gaining Ground), mindfulness instructor Diana Winston (Fully Present), psychic medium Concetta Bertoldi (Do Dead People Watch You In The Shower?), master bakers Catherine Ruehle (Let Them All Eat Cake) and Stanley Ginsberg (The Rye Baker), legendary tattoo artist Freddy Negrete (Smile Now, Cry Later), model, TV personality and life coach, Rosie Mercado (The Girl With Self-Esteem Issues), and award-winning journalists Sam Quinones (Dreamland), Anastacia Marx de Salceda (Combat Ready Kitchen), and Lynda Schuster (Dirty Wars & Polished Silver).

In fiction, Stephany represents a range of women’s fiction, from literary to romance, as well as mainstream mysteries and cozies, and the occasional literary/commercial novel not aimed at women. She has represented Emily Giffin (Something Borrowed), Molly Harper (Nice Girls Don’t Have Fangs), Rebecca Coleman (The Kingdom of Childhood), contemporary romances by USA Today bestsellers Jennifer Gracen, and Jeannie Moon; Gretchen Archer’s, and Suzanne Chazin’s (respectively) Davis Way, and Jimmy Vega mystery series; cozy mysteries by Tina Kashian and Jane Willan, and Stephan Mack Jones’s multi-award winning August Snow crime fiction series. She is looking for fine, accomplished writing, whether the work is by a first-time or established author.

Stephany is a member of the Association of American Literary Agents (AALA, formerly known as AAR) and Agents Round Table, and has served as ghostwriter on eight published books.
