it will inevitably take more time than I wish, but I will endeavor to get back to each and every one of you. I know this is a tough process for writers (& for agents!), but know that even if I am not the right agent for you, I am glad that so many of us are writing! (5/7)

my #MSWL : stories by queer and trans writers, esp. ones that resist & subvert tropes of trauma, coming out, & transition; novels that make me laugh with their cleverness, wit, & peculiar specificity; grounded speculative fiction with a literary sensibility... (2/7)

A friend was just in the store and we were chatting Romance novels (as one does) and how many there are that are about cooks or bakers or otherwise food-related but could not think of one 🧀cheesemonger🧀 Romance. If it's out there, please point me to it. If not, PLEASE WRITE IT.#mswl 🧀!!

overall: I represent mostly-adult, mostly-fiction across the literary-commercial spectrum from weirdo short stories to "book club" novels to historical fiction to trade romance. I *rarely* read thrillers or hard SFF. You can query me right here: aevitascreative.com/contact/ #MSWL
Literary Agent
prose-forward crossover speculative fiction that traffics in "what-if"s, wonder, & what the inimitable @clarebeams calls "the living strangeness of the world" #MSWL
Literary Agent
epistolary novels, novels in emails, novels in text messages, novels in standardized tests, novels in recipes... and bonus points *always* for "but make it gay" #MSWL
Literary Agent
so-called women's fiction that passes the Bechdel test with flying colors + romance between humans who aren't cis men 👭 #MSWL
Literary Agent
gorgeously written literary fiction with a well earned, but mind-boggling twist (see: FATES & FURIES, TRUST EXERCISE, FINGERSMITH) 🤯 #MSWL
Literary Agent
quirky, imaginative, highly specific stories set in grocery stores, hedge mazes, libraries and bookstores, neighborhood bakeries, historic homes & museums 🏰🌿🏦#MSWL

hit me up with your very smartest feminist retellings, your structurally fearless literary fiction, and anything you’d comp to the brilliant Sarah Waters, Lesley Nneka Arimah, Curtis Sittenfeld, or Carmen Maria Machado! #MSWL

I’d love to read your LGBTQ romance starring thoughtful humans who are great at their jobs, your rich & delicious historical fiction, and your epistolary novels anywhere along the literary/commercial spectrum. #MSWL
