"I am seeking literary fiction that pushes the boundaries of genre and form like LANNY by Max Porter or SUMMERWATER by Sarah Moss."
Marina Green #MSWL

I'm open to all things MG and YA (as well as select adult nonfiction), but two things I'd really love to find are a lush YA historical and a deeply personal YA mystery or thriller. #mswl

"Nonfiction I loved (from the past year or two): VULTURE CAPITALISM, STOLEN FOCUS, WINTERING, PSYCHOLOGY OF MONEY, HOW TO RAISE A FEMINIST SON, POVERTY BY AMERICA, FOUR THOUSAND WEEKS, HOW TO DO NOTHING."
Carly Watters #MSWL

FYI: I'll be closing to queries on December 18 and reopening sometime in January. Please plan accordingly!

“I would love to find the next Gossip Girl for the YA or adult market. Give me over-the-top drama, complex relationship dynamics, and a great aesthetic.”

My #MSWL x1000!

"I'd like to see more speculative fiction, and psychological thrillers in my inbox."
Elizabeth Guthrie #MSWL

"In nonfiction, I am particularly drawn to true crime."
Elizabeth Guthrie #MSWL

"I would love an atmospheric environmental thriller or mystery akin to WILD DARK SHORE by Charlotte McConaghy or FORCE OF NATURE by Jane Harper where the wild setting is a main character."
Marina Green #MSWL

"I’d love to see projects like FROM HERE TO ETERNITY by Caitlin Doughty, YOU WERE BORN FOR THIS by Chani Nicholas, and THE RADIUM GIRLS by Kate Moore in my inbox."

“I would love atmospheric and speculative mysteries and thrillers that skew psychological and cerebral with unreliable narrators. I want stories where the setting is the main character and characters have full and dynamic backstories!”
Marina Green #MSWL

"I'm on the lookout for Gothic horror and horror/romances that are fresh, unnerving, and get under my skin."

"I'm always interested in epic fantasy with big worldbuilding, high stakes, and characters to get invested in."
Rose Ferrao #MSWL

"Give me characters hovering between love and hate. I crave the push and pull!"
Gemma Paynter #MSWL

I’m open to queries through November 5!

With so many clients busy with books, I’m excited to take on some new and exciting authors - check my #mswl to see if that could be you!

"Looking for platform-driven nonfiction with unique hooks. (Platform meaning: social media/YouTube followers, TV appearances, email newsletter numbers, etc)."

"Send me your fantasy novels with shorter word counts and immersive worldbuilding. Ex: GODKILLER by Hannah Kaner, and EMILY WILDE'S ENCYCLOPAEDIA OF FAERIES by Heather Fawcett.”

"Seeking multi-generational stories of parenthood and family featuring marginalized communities in the commercial or historical adult fiction genre (i.e. heavy with plot!) like THE IRISH GOODBYE and BLACK CAKE."
Carly Watters #MSWL

"I want genre fiction with playful form, such as the epistolary style of Janice Hallett’s work."
