What Ashley is looking for

Ashley represents adult nonfiction and select fiction. She is most interested in the books that haunt her in a good way—the kind of writing that she keeps thinking about long after the first read. She gets excited about projects that are incisive, witty, transporting, equal parts seismic and granular—in essence, books that unearth something within her, be it curiosity, laughter, longing, ache, or sonder. Some published and upcoming titles: Raising Securely Attached Kids by Eli Harwood, Too Smart for This by Alexis Barber
