I’d really love to see more #horror and #thrillers in my QM inbox, #amquerying writers! Bonus point for stories told by historically marginalized creators! #MSWL #amwriting #YA

Top of my 2024 #MSWL - #YA fast-paced, twisty #thrillers and atmospheric #horror ; #YA #romantasy ; #YA #historical with a modern voice; #diversevoices ; #PB with strong cultural elements, joy, humor, whimsy.

I’d love to see more YA thrillers, mysteries, horror and dystopian in my inbox! #MSWL #amwriting #amquerying #writingcommunity

Hi authors who have just found themselves in need of an agent - I’m happily open to queries (PB thru YA) and would love to hear from you if you think we’d be a fit! #MSWL in bio! #writingcommunity #amquerying

Please send me more #YA #romantasy #amquerying folks - points for culturally grounded stories, non-western folklore or mythology, and lots of tension, atmosphere, and gorgeous prose! #MSWL #amwriting #writingcommunity #enemiestolovers #friendstolovers

One more week til I open to queries, #amquerying folks! Make sure to check out my #MSWL via the link in my bio and send relevant #PB #MG and #YA projects my way starting March 1! #writingcommunity #amwriting #kidlit

Another? Lorelei Savaryn’s CIRCUS OF STOLEN DREAMS. Gorgeous writing. Gorgeous imagery. If you can comp to either of these I’d love to see your projects, #amquerying authors. #MSWL #mg #ya

For #YA, I'd love to see more psychological #thrillers, #mysteries, #light atmospheric horror. Give me a YA Girl, Interrupted, please. I'd also love to see more #BIPOC and #queer stories that lead with joy here - #romance, #romcoms.

#MSWL Alert - I'd love to see more light, fun, contemporary YA and YA romcoms in my inbox, authors. #Ownvoices a plus. Lots of editors looking for these types of stories right now!

It's come to my query-reading attention that I am a total sucker for #secretsocieties. Send me all your mysterious, secret organization stories, folks. #MG #YA #MSWL

I’m open to queries once again, folks! Looking for picture books, chapter books and graphic novels from author illustrators as well as middle grade and young adult projects! See my #MSWL for more about specific projects I’d love to see! And once again, Happy New Year! 🎉✌🏼

It's starting to feel like fall here in CO, and the season change has me hankering for some creepy #YA reads - atmospheric #horror, grounded, dark #mysteries, psychological #thrillers. Bring it on, writers! #getinmyhead #MSWL

esp #ownvoices; Author/Illustrators (PBs, CBs, GNs); #ownvoices Southern Gothic (Cajun/Creole/BIPOC) YA or MG; original, inventive MG fantasy - show me a world no one's ever thought of before. #MSWL

I'll be popping in and out of #Pitmad today, so I'm sure to miss some good ones. If you think we'd be a good fit, please feel free to query me: hilaryquery at ktliterary dot com. Things I'm on the hunt for (#MSWL): creepy/spooky/dark MG; alternate history for MG/YA,

#MSWL Alert: For the YA audience please! This story is fascinating! Ching Shih – Pirate Lord shar.es/abs92R

#MSWL Alert: I'd love to see a #MG or #YA with a #climate or #environmental theme, speculative/near-future or contemporary. Bonus if it's #ownvoices from a writer of color or about an under-served community!

I’d love a project like this, especially if it has strong anthropology themes! #MSWL

I'll be reading through all my #PitDark query requests today but please, #writingcommunity, keep sending me your #horror, #thrillers, #suspense for both #YA and #MG! Especially if they're #ownvoices! I'm hongry! ;) #MSWL #amquerying
