Caroline J. Trussell

Author | Literary Agent | Editorially Minded Human

Welcome to my website! I am an independently published author and literary agent. My background is in editorial work (both line editing and developmental editing), journalism, communications, manuscript evaluation, and publishing practices.

I've showcased some of my work from my journalism background as well as information on current works in progress and finished manuscripts.

 

My most recently published work is my contemporary Young Adult novel Love in the City with No J Street, which can be found on Amazon. I just received a book deal with Fire and Ice Young Adult to publish my YA speculative fiction fantasy, ENHANCED, in July 2025 and am actively working on multiple manuscripts, one of which I'm currently querying. Click on the "Creative Works" page to learn more about the stories I'm writing.

 

On the agenting side, you can find the current genres I'm looking for by clicking the "Learn More" button below. Please contact me through Query Manager if you are interested in submitting to me. 

PORTFOLIO

In this section of my website, you'll find pieces that I've written throughout my career as well as manuscripts that I'm currently either querying or working on. Please let me know if you have any questions!
