Danny Parisi
Senior Fashion Reporter at Glossy
The clown is me, Danny. I write fantasy novels and, in my day job, I’m a journalist covering the fashion industry. My first novel is out on submission right now and I’m hard at work on my second. My books, so far, are all secondary world fantasies but with strong inspiration from real-world history and politics. If you’ve ever read a Guy Gavriel Kay book, that’s kind of the vibe I aim for.
I live in New York City, which I love with all my heart, with my fianceè and our cat Persephone, both of whom I also love with the same amount of the same heart. I have a hodgepodge of hobbies from photography to art to music to bar trivia to fountain pens to vintage cigarette cases.
I’m repped by Sophia Ramos at New Leaf Literary, a genius agent who I couldn’t be happier with.
