"Send me books about surfing! Romance, fantasy, non-fiction—I’d love to see them all!"
Marina Green #MSWL

Something else that's evergreen on my #MSWL : Eat the rich stories. Stories about dismantling the upper class.

Adding for no reason in particular...

And the kids too 📺 #mswl

✅ friend groups navigating supernatural things or taboo topics in a unique coming of age way
✅ ambitious teens that would eat you for breakfast
✅ kids who have to pretty much be adults to survive but make it joyful

For the grown up shows 📺 #mswl

✅ adult siblings navigating life in hilariously relatable ways because well….emotionally immature parents
✅ workplace settings with gasp worthy social commentary (bonus if it’s set abroad somewhere)
✅ spies or thieves who surprise me but also make me laugh

New #mswl drop! Let’s hear it for the tv shows 📺 #amagenting

"I am looking for upmarket stories and narratives that push the boundaries of genre and form."
Marina Green #MSWL

"I love a strong romance plotline in a speculative setting, like THE UNDERTAKING OF HART AND MERCY and WINTER'S ORBIT."
Rose Ferrao #MSWL

"Send me real-world horror that is truly scary!"

"I am dreaming of fantasies that feel like a pre-Raphaelite painting or even a Hayao Miyazaki film."

#mswl butch protagonists, please! Especially in YA! A YA romance with a butch love interest would be so delightful

That's all for now. I don't answer questions about queries on Bluesky so direct any questions to the ASH Literary submissions email address. Looking forward to reading!

#mswl this is very specific but I'd like to see a contemporary YA novel about a formerly high-achieving teen athlete who has to redefine their sense of self after a physically disabling injury or illness changes their relationship with the sport

#mswl labor rights in fiction is a big buzz word for me. Extra intriguing when someone can pull it off in middle grade, but I'm open to speculative or real-world settings, middle grade or YA or adult.

🧵/

#mswl I still haven't signed a YA rom-com and I'd love to! Send me rom-coms please. I love fun, bantery romance with thoroughly teenage priorities, especially when grounded in queer or multicultural identities.

🧵/

#mswl heists please! YA or adult, contemporary or fantasy settings. Bonus if the heist is intended to right a legal injustice in the vein of the show Leverage or the book Portrait of a Thief. Extra bonus if there's a lesbian protagonist.

🧵/

I'm looking for picture books, chapter books, middle grade, YA, and speculative adult fiction. I'm open to science fiction for the first time; please be gentle with me.

I'm NOT currently accepting queries for graphic novels.
