Solicit a Query from Sarah Layden

It’s like Manuscript Wishlist, but different!

The bots found my handy query solicitation form and spammed me. Clankers ruin everything. But I still have new work to share, so please reach out to salayden (at) gmail (dot) com if you’d like to receive a query from me in any/all of the following spaces:

Literary/upmarket novel (book of my heart, infertility and reproductive rights, class, film/identity, multi-POV)

Nonfiction book proposal (another book of my heart, true crime, grief and illness, archival research, genealogy, family secrets, narrative nonfiction)

-YA novel (Ok fine they are all books of my heart! Girls high school volleyball, LGBTQ+ rights, social justice, 80s film subplot, first person)
