Literary Agent and Author
BookEnds Literary Agency
Representing Powerful Stories… by Powerful Creators.
Authors have always been Naomi Davis's superheroes. Growing up in Minnesota, they spent their elementary years pretending they were every character in every book they read. A life-long writer and author-fanatic, they have a mild to moderate obsession with slippers, drag, and singing.
Working with authors and incredible colleagues at BookEnds Literary Agency has been a dream come true for Naomi.
Naomi has a passion for helping authors develop stakes, voice immersion, and tension to a story's highest possible potential, and often tweets about strategies for accomplishing those goals on their Twitter.
They seek dynamic, character-driven adult and young adult titles in fantasy, sci-fi, and romance, and represent select picture book authors.
Naomi is particularly passionate about finding new fantasy and sci-fi settings with unique magical structures that surprise the reader and change the rules readers associate with those worlds. They write powerful, intricate characters in explosive SFF settings.
Naomi is genderqueer and nonbinary (yes, both) and happy with either pronoun, she/her or they/them.
An Interview With Naomi

Mr. Noodles
Mr. Noodles is a Havanese with a delightful overbite that makes his tongue hang out all the time. He is interested in reading books only if he can chew on them, or if you have tucked treats in between the pages. His favorite genres are Foods, MoreFoods, and NotBaths.
Naomi will also happily consider manuscripts with snacks between the pages.
