Lake Mary, FL—Embolden Media Group is honored to announce the appointment of Grace P. Cho as literary agent. Grace is a Korean American editor and writer with a deep love for words and people and an unwavering belief that books have the power to change the world. With nearly four years of experience as a senior acquisitions editor at Revell Books and Brazos Press, imprints of Baker Publishing Group, Grace brings to EMG a rare combination of thoughtful author care and development, editorial excellence, and a bold commitment to elevating BIPOC voices in publishing.
“I’m incredibly grateful to be joining Embolden Media Group,” said Grace. “From my first conversation with Jevon, I knew I wanted to work alongside her to advocate and amplify underrepresented voices and to publish books that matter. I’m excited to bring my editorial instincts and publishing relationships to the agenting side of the table and to link arms with a team that is doing such consequential work.”
As a literary agent at Embolden Media Group, Grace will actively build her client list, seeking authors writing in the following nonfiction categories: personal growth and psychology, relationships, mental health and wellness, creativity, and spiritual formation. She is particularly drawn to progressive and post-evangelical voices and to projects that center and elevate BIPOC authors and perspectives.
“Working with Grace is an answer to an unspoken prayer. For years, I knew she was someone I’d want to work closely with just to be influenced and inspired by her unique light and warm care. Her sensibilities as an editor, reader, and human being align so well with what EMG is becoming. I am honored she chose us, and I can’t wait to see the authors she will champion and the books she will bring to life.” said Jevon Bolden, founder and CEO of Embolden Media Group.
Grace is now open for queries. Authors interested in representation may submit through EMG’s website at emboldenmediagroup.com.
