Suzannah Ball

Suzannah has been at WME since 2019 and is based in the London office. She works with a wide range of authors and is excited to be building her own list with an emphasis on all things romance, horror, fantasy and speculative fiction - anything that makes our own world feel larger than life, or draws readers into a new fantastical world, will be right up her street. She’s proud to work with authors who have a vivid imagination and are able to tap into a reader’s deepest desires.

Suzannah represents adult, young and new adult fiction as well as non-fiction, and is keen to work closely with both debut and experienced authors to help them develop material and ideas. Some of her clients include Instant Sunday Times Bestselling author Jennifer Delaney, #1 NYT Bestseller Philippa Rice, and Rachel Wood, among others. And alongside her US colleagues, she represents the UK interests of various clients including Sarah A. Parker, SenLinYu, Callie Hart, and romance authors Ivy Fairbanks, Annie Crown and Peyton Corinne. She loves working with authors from across the world and finding their books the right home outside of their primary market.

For UK representation she is looking for a story that will immediately sweep you away and writing that pulls at the heartstrings, especially if it can make her cry. In fiction specifically, she wants to find writing that sparks joy, be that through comedy, quirky coming of age stories, or swoon-worthy romance (send her all the tropes!), and is open to a wide range of both commercial and literary writing. She’s also a fan of books with a darker edge; so send her anything gothic, uncanny, or with vampires. She loves losing herself in speculative fiction and fantasy, and some of her favourite authors in the space include Erin Morgenstern, Deborah Harkness, Sarah J. Maas, and Diana Wynne Jones. Most importantly, she wants to read a beautifully crafted story with a strong narrative voice.

In non-fiction, she is obsessed with all things pop culture, entertainment, and the arts.

She reads widely, but some of the books she is obsessed with include BOY PARTS by Eliza Clark, IN AT THE DEEP END by Kate Davies, THE NIGHT CIRCUS by Erin Morgenstern, THE DEAD ROMANTICS by Ashley Poston, and everything written by Emily Henry or Lucy Score. Essentially, anything that has characters you can really root for and fall in love with will be high up on her wish list.
