An updated #MSWL thread!

In general, I’m looking for Adult, YA, & MG fiction. I'm drawn to romance, horror, lower SFF, and genre blending & am always looking for more diverse perspectives. I am NOT right for erotica, non-fic, lit fic, or lower MG/chap books.

Specifics below.

@tiffanykaye_ @TantorAudio Huge congrats!!! 🎉🎉

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@perez_erin80 Yes, people are definitely welcome to requery me if they've put something through significant revisions! I may still not be the right fit for it, but I'll always take another look.

@ayawrites Hi Aya! I am, thanks for asking! :)

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

In YA, I am NOT typically the right fit for historical, high fantasy or sci-fi with heavy worldbuilding, European-inspired fantasy settings, Arthurian retellings, space operas, dystopian, teen pregnancy stories, eating disorders, horse books, zombies.

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@signedbysuzanne Oooh, sounds super fun! :)

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@KariSulli ☺️

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@vicky_daddo I would definitely take a look! :)

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@AmandaSenior12 Definitely! And even if I don't end up being quite the right fit, I don't think of it as wasted time -- it's a joy to be trusted with people's stories and be a small part of their writing journey, and I always appreciate the chance to fall in love with their work :)

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@RichardAHJr If there have been revisions to the MS, then I'd definitely take a look again, but if not, then I likely would still not be quite the right fit for the project!

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@Alixlaforge333 Time loop horror romance, you say?! 👀

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@RichardAHJr Definitely!

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@Stpolishook Not at all! I would definitely take a look at something without romance.

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@AmandaSenior12 You can always feel free to send me a query if you'd like, I'm always willing to take a look!

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@tisforthamyl 😂😂 sounds great, I hope you write fast!! LOL

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@BeattyGreg Only one MS at a time and if the first 10 pages is the entire MS then yes, the entire MS is fine!

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@DevPitches I'm so glad! And thank you, I hope you're having a good day also!🥰

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@AriaIgniata Amazing! I'll keep my eye out for your name in my inbox!!🥰

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@DevPitches Romance w/ a spec twist is looser & while it can involve fantasy elements, it doesn't have to (could be more paranormal w/ vamps, or more sci-fi with timeloops). It also tends to skew more contemporary (i.e.: spec elements in our world). Think THE DEAD ROMANTICS, or THE EX HEX.

[Ashley Reisinger @Awritesinger]

@DevPitches Hi Devyani! Of course -- while there aren't really hard definitions, I'd consider romantasy to be more romance in a fantasy setting or fantasy w/ an equally strong romance plot. Think something like ASSISTANT TO THE VILLAIN or the MEAD MISHAPS books.
