Elisha Lundin joins Sphere as senior commissioning editor

Elisha Lundin has moved to Little, Brown Book Group to join the Sphere editorial team as senior commissioning editor.

Working closely with Sphere Fiction executive publisher Lucy Malagoni, deputy publisher Tilda Key and senior commissioning editor Molly Walker-Sharp, she will acquire and publish all types of commercial women’s fiction.

In her previous role as commissioning editor at Avon, Lundin has worked with authors including Kitty Neale, Annabel French and Alice Hunter, as well as publishing Kate Storey’s The Memory Library.

Key said: "We were impressed by Elisha’s creativity and her commercial eye, as well as her drive to help her authors succeed across all formats and markets. The Sphere team is delighted to welcome her at this exciting time for women’s fiction publishing, and we can’t wait to see what she brings to the list."

Lundin commented: "I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most talented colleagues and authors during my time at Avon and I’m incredibly proud of the publishing I accomplished there. However, the chance to join the dynamic team at Sphere and contribute to their impressive list was an opportunity I simply couldn’t pass up."
