Maggie Sadler is a dynamic and intentional writing coach, editor, and literary agent dedicated to helping her clients plumb the depths of their potential as writers. Maggie marries her unique energy with a growth-minded mentorship approach to guide and support clients through their adventures in writing.

Maggie’s professional journey has been distinct and varied, first beginning in the freelance space as a self-starting editor, where she developed a keen passion for teaching authors how to further develop their craft with detailed developmental feedback. Building on this experience, Maggie lends her eye for artful prose to a boutique agency as a literary agent. Championing debut authors has been the most inspiring aspect of Maggie’s work in the literary sphere. These complimentary experiences inform her mentorship practice, which is steeped in productive critique, industry integrity, creative curiosity, and positive encouragement. Above all, Maggie values the small moments—the discovery of a particularly beautiful word, a client having the courage to read their writing aloud for the first time, or a client feeling genuine pride in their work— that arise during a client’s creative journey.

Maggie earned her joint Masters with honors in Comparative Literature and English from the historic University of St Andrews and her Masters in Literary Studies from Memorial University of Newfoundland. As a student, she honed her diverse literary interests in folklore retellings, nineteenth-century maritime adventure fiction, and audience reception across creative mediums. Her scholarly work has been featured in Inquiries and Coriolis journals.

A writer herself, Maggie draws inspiration from folklore, sweeping landscapes, and untamed femininity as she scribbles away at her debut novel. When not reading or writing, Maggie can usually be found exploring astride her rascally horse or admiring various species of moss on hikes with her partner.
