Keely Boeving

Keely Boeving is a Senior Agent with WordServe Literary. After receiving her B.A. in English from the University of Virginia, she began her career in New York working at Oxford University Press, where she acquired books for the trade history list. She moved back to Colorado in 2014 and began her own freelance editorial company before joining WordServe. She lives in Denver with her husband and their three children. You can find out more about her editorial work at www.keelyboeving.com.

Keely is looking for well-researched nonfiction books in the areas of health and wellness (physical, mental, and emotional), business, parenting and family life, and the intersection of faith and culture; as well as projects from diverse and under-represented voices. For the Christian market, she is seeking books in the areas of Christian living, spiritual transformation, devotion and worship, and women’s topics including motherhood, relationships and marriage, work-life balance, and calling. She is also seeking narrative nonfiction and memoir. She very occasionally takes on new children’s book projects, including middle grade, picture books, and the occasional YA novel; she loves contemporary stories that feature characters who are quirky and complex, and books that allow children to see themselves in the pages, perhaps for the first time.

She is not looking for thrillers, sci-fi, fantasy, or romance.
