Editor
47North
Meet ElizabethElizabeth Agyemang is an editor for 47North, where she acquires science fiction, fantasy, and speculative fiction. She looks for works with commercial, crossover appeal—from sharp and adventurous sci-fi explorations of technology and the future, to sweeping fantasies tinged with romance, and propulsive horror. Before joining Amazon Publishing, Elizabeth was at HarperCollins Publishers where she edited, acquired, and managed books from New York Times bestselling authors, award winners, and debuts including Julie Kagawa, Sunya Mara, Sarah Raughley, Erica Buddington, MzVee, and Joanna Cacao. Prior to that, she was at Clarion Books where she worked with Caldecott and Newbery winners and New York Times bestselling authors including Melissa Sweet, Joyce Sidman, Kwame Alexander, Kass Morgan, and Danielle Paige.
Elizabeth is the author and illustrator of graphic novels and prose fiction. Her debut graphic novel Fibbed was a Parents.com Best Children’s Book of 2022 selection and a Chicago Public Library Best Fiction for Kids 2022 pick, and Heart-shaped Lies is her debut young adult novel. When she isn’t gushing over books, Elizabeth spends her free time dissecting classic movies and TV shows.
