About Katie
Katie Greenstreet has been an agent at Paper Literary since 2022. She started her career in books as an assistant at ICM Partners in New York, where she supported authors who have won the Booker, Pulitzer and Nobel Prizes. She later moved to London and joined C&W, where she began building her own list. She has closed six- and seven-figure deals across the US and the UK.
What Katie is looking for
Katie is building a list of quality commercial and upmarket fiction, with book club appeal, alongside a small number of memoirs and non-fiction projects. Psychological suspense is her first love, including locked room mysteries. She is also seeking sweeping love stories, historical fiction offering a previously unheard perspective, memoir that reveals a world previously unknown to readers, and lighthearted family novels. She is not the right agent for YA, children's or science fiction and fantasy submissions.
Submissions
At the time of checking (November 2026), Paper Literary said it was actively seeking new writers and accepted all submissions by email. Send a query letter, a synopsis and the first 10,000 words, with the synopsis and opening chapters attached as Word documents, and address the email to the specific agent you are querying. Fiction should only be sent once the complete manuscript is ready. The email address is on the agency's website. Silence after two months means the agency has passed on the work.
