Daniel Lazar is a literary agent with Writers House Literary Agency. Daniel says: “As an agent, and a reader, I’m a generalist. I work across fiction, non-fiction and children’s books.

I love unputdownable stories that introduce me to new worlds, or recreate ones I already know. Explorations of relationships, history, faith, science, culture — yes, please. I love comics and graphic novels, so whether you’re working in prose or in panels or a combination of elements, all formats are welcome. I grew up the oldest of six, and I’m uncle to fifteen (so far), so I’m always intrigued by unique views on parenting and family life.

If your pages can make me hold my breath or miss my subway stop… I’d love to hear from you.”
