Hi! 👋🏻 I’m a literary agent at The Ampersand Agency actively building my list 📚 Here is my manuscript wishlist 👀#mswl
To submit, please send three chapters/50pp to abigail@theampersandagency.co.uk, along with a synopsis and covering letter.

#mswl

Using publishing's slow month of August to catch up on open queries. I'll be reopening in September for a short period looking for a few specific things. I'm most excited to find a compelling queer take on lit RPG, dystopian, and continued authentic representation in stories.

#literaryagent #mswl

Genres I’m open to: romance, fantasy/speculative, mystery/thrillers, horror, historical, lyrical contemporary (more so coming of age with a strong romance thread & a story that weaves in heart & humor - I’m typically not the best fit for contemporary rom-coms in general), novels in verse 2/3

Love stories: concept-led rom-coms, sweeping epics, or something that will break my heart. I love yearning, longing, slow-burn or the intensity of first love - but also open to the steamier the stuff.

"I'm seeking 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

"Romance novels like CROSS CHECKED, HOW TO END A LOVE STORY, NORA GOES OFF SCRIPT, LIGHTS OUT, and MAGGIE MOVES ON."
Carly Watters #MSWL

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

"Romance novels like HOW TO END A LOVE STORY, LEFT OF FOREVER, ALIVE AND WELLS, NORA GOES OFF SCRIPT."

Also, I'd love a World Cup romance if anyone has got that!

"I love romance subplots that heavily feature yearning."

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