SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

Email your query to ava@bookhaven.com, with QUERY in the subject line and the FIRST CHAPTER of your manuscript attached as a Word doc. If you don’t hear from me within 8 weeks, please consider it a pass.

Thank you for trusting me with your query! As an author myself, I know how frustrating and vulnerable the querying process can be. So please know I read every query that hits my inbox and carefully consider each submission. If I pass, it doesn’t mean that your manuscript isn’t going to sell; it’s just not right for my list. Wishing you the best with your querying.
