Starling Literary + Media was founded in 2025 by established agents Jemiscoe Chambers-Black, Paige Terlip, and Jennifer March Soloway. The agency was born from a shared belief in creative liberty, a collective vision that fuels fearless innovation and honors the power of stories that stay with us.

Like the starling murmurations that fill the sky, we move together. While each voice is distinct, we’re part of something larger than ourselves. Our work with each other and our clients is rooted in collaboration. 

 

We champion transformation not only in the stories and creators we represent, but also in the ways we represent them. Starling Literary + Media represents human creators. We believe that books for readers of all ages should be written and illustrated by people, and we are committed to protecting our clients' work from unauthorized use by AI companies. Our clients are genre-shapers and innovators. They challenge expectations, break boundaries, and shape culture. Our approach is to work closely with each client, combining strategy and creativity to ensure their stories soar.

 

We don't follow the market. We shape it.
