I'm opening to queries on Monday and will be posting some #MSWL thoughts today. Check my website for full guidelines but I'm open to adult fantasy, adult science fiction, adult horror, adult mystery/suspense, and young adult horror. I'm not looking for MG, most YA, or romantasy at this time.

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

✨I'M OPEN TO GRAPHIC NOVELS✨
Here is a visual #mswl for what I'd love to see in my inbox 👀

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

#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 open to middle grade queries!

"I'm interested in inventive second world fantasies inspired by non-Western cultures or folklore."

For MG: poignant novels in verse à la Thanhhà Lại, Jacqueline Brown; fantasy/speculative exploring profound themes à la The Last Cuentista or The Girl Who Drank the Moon; survival stories like Hatchet or Alone; silly & humorous illustrated like The Last Kids on Earth or Dav Pilkey; mysteries 2/3

Hi agents, I’m on the hunt for high-concept layered YA & MG novels! #MSWL

For YA: romantic fantasy; dark academia; mystery/thrillers like We Were Liars or Firekeeper’s Daughter; thought-provoking horror or gothic; romantic coming of age like Aristotle & Dante & Last Night at the Telegraph Club 1/3

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

OK haven't updated my #MSWL but while I'm still open wanted to let yall know I'm being super picky about fantasy. If you have:

-grumpy FMC / golden retriever MMC

-MM written by a gay man

-FMC is actually popular and loved and falls

-Grounded fantasy in Asia or Africa

Gimme!

"I would love fantasies with unique magic systems, strong characters, and stories inspired by myth or folklore, particularly outside the Western canon."
Marina Green #MSWL

In kid lit I'm looking for...voicey identity driven middle grade, romance with cultural significance, adventure fantasy with knights, coming of age in international settings #mswl

In graphic novels I'm looking for...cinematic panel sequences, buddy adventure fantasy, dreamy solar punk sci-fi coming of age through language, speculative cultural narratives, stories where places feels like a character #mswl

In adult fiction I'm looking for...speculative horror/thriller, contemporary romance, philosophical sci-fi, fantasy with cozy magical realism, identity driven book club fiction #mswl

"Send me inventive middle grade fantasy novels. Ex: THE GIRL WHO DRANK THE MOON, WHEN YOU TRAP A TIGER, THE LAND OF STORIES, and THE SCHOOL FOR GOOD AND EVIL."

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

High, high, HIGH on my 2026 wish list is YA SFF, a cast of characters with distinct personalities, mayhem, pirates, humor, and protagonists with hearts of gold who are also a little too clever for their own good.

You know what I'm seeking? TREASURE PLANET. Please send me anything that comps! #MSWL

"Send me romantasy with strong fantasy and romance elements – it needs to have solid worldbuilding and plot as well as off-the-charts chemistry."
Rose Ferrao #MSWL
