After completing the publishing program at Centennial College, Lonicka interned at HarperCollins Canada before working at Scholastic Book Fairs Canada for nearly 4 years as a book buyer and marketer. She then joined the Online and Digital Sales team at Penguin Random House Canada where she sold ebooks and audiobooks. Lonicka is eager to draw from these experiences to return to her original passion: working with writers.<\/p>\n

As the founder of #DiverseCanLit and the first Chair of the Board of the Festival of Literary Diversity, serving readers and writers of colour is the core of Lonicka’s career. She brings this same mandate to her work at Transatlantic. As Assistant Agent, Lonicka will be working closely with Senior Agents with whom she will be coagenting new clients. Lonicka is interested in commercial fiction (especially fantasy, romance, and historical fiction), general nonfiction, and YA & children’s books.<\/p>\n
