ABOUT THE AGENT:

Anna Ange joined Liza Dawson Associates in 2024. She graduated from Mount Holyoke in 2022 with B.A. in English and French Literature. She then went on to participate in the Writers House Internship Program. Anna spends her free time scavenging for and tumbling rocks, playing Fire Emblem, organizing independently published zine projects, and, of course, reading.


​

​Some fun facts about Anna:

​
Her favorite movie is The Grand Budapest Hotel.
Her favorite TV show is "House, MD."
Her favorite video game is Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Anna is a dog person but has only ever owned cats.
Her favorite color is cobalt blue.
Her niche historical interests include; medieval nuns, the history of rabies, and 1920s and 30s fashion.

ANNA IS SEEKING: 

  • Adult literary/genre crossover. Literary forward novels that play with horror, speculative, or “weird” elements. Interesting prose, mind boggling premises. Satire also welcome.
  • True genre horror. No holds barred.
  • Queer historical fiction & historical fantasy, especially set before the year 1900.
  • Narrative non-fiction or essays that center on niche and surprising topics.
  • Adult Graphic novels (fiction): Small-scale, intimate but existential stories set against fantastical backgrounds, historical fantasy, horror/gothic/noir with romantic subplots. Unique and inventive art styles.
  • Adult Graphic novels (non-fiction): history and memoir.
  • Autumnal, spooky/horror-adjacent, middle grade prose or graphic novels that take on complicated, relevant issues.



    Some of Anna's recent favorite reads are:

  • You Too Can Have a Body Like Mine by Alexandra Kleeman
  • Last Days by Brian Evenson
  • The People in the Trees by Hanya Yanigihara
  • Vita Nostra by Marina & Sergey Dyachenko
  • Goodbye My Rose Garden by Dr. Pepperco
  • Beautiful Darkness by Kerascoët
  • Earthlings by Sayaka Murata
  • The Art of Cruelty by Maggie Nelson
  • Hild & Menewood by Nicola Griffith
  • Blood Child by Octavia Butler.                                                                                                    

​Anna likes books that aren’t technically horror, but nevertheless evoke a sense of horror. She likes straight up horror too, though.  ​

Anna is  NOT interested in:​ Novels in verse, billionaire characters, Greek mythology retellings, found family, queer normative otherworlds, crime and mystery thrillers.

HOW TO QUERY: 

If you are interested in querying Anna, for prose: please send a query in the body of the email, and first three chapters or 25 pages in a word document to [email protected].

Please note: When we post a New Agent Spotlight, we try to make sure the agent is open to submissions at the time of posting. But as time goes by, an agent can close and open to submissions at any time. If some time has passed since this spotlight was posted, you will want to check their agency website and/or QueryManager before submitting, to be sure.
