Jaynie Royal founded Regal House Publishing in 2014 and has since guided its growth over the past twelve years to include the imprints Fitzroy Books, Pact Press, and House of Kel, as well as its nonprofit arm, Regal House Initiative. Named Independent Publisher of the Year in 2021 by Foreword Reviews, Regal House publishing has over 400 titles in its backlist and publishes 58 new titles a year. Regal House Publishing is distributed by IPG
Examples of books she currently represents:
We Meet Apart by Martha Conway
Beneath a Fallen Sky by Scott Gould
The World to See by Jessica Handler
The Last Whaler by Cynthia Reeves
Closer by Miriam Gershow
Jaynie is looking for:
character-driven fiction for the adult, YA, and MG markets; manuscripts with an imaginative hook combined with lyrical prose; titles that speak in some meaningful way to the complexities of our world, past (via historical fiction) and present.
Jaynie is not looking for:
plot-driven commercial fiction
