Note: I will reopen to author-only creators in the picture book space after the holidays 🫶

📢 AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATORS 📢
Surprise! I'm open to picture book author/illustrator queries from now until the end of the month. I will be prioritizing humor, high-concept hooks, STEM topics, and fresh approaches to evergreen topics #mswl

This is your friendly reminder I open to queries TOMORROW! I'll be open to PB-YA and I can't wait to see all of your amazing projects! Here is a link to my updated #MSWL :

I'm also interested in humorous stories that stretch the imagination, creepy picture books that allow young readers to explore fear, tension, and the unknown in a safe and fun way, and inventive/clever nonfiction, particularly STEAM themes and narrative nonfiction.

Specifically, I'd like to find heart-warming picture books that celebrate community and resilience, whimsical stories that honor individuality, and stories that highlight culture, traditions, and belonging.

PICTURE BOOKS #PB
Picture books with multiple, distinct hooks, clear/concise writing, and original concepts. I am open to working with both authors and author-illustrators in this space.

Hi, #WritingCommunity ! I'm Ashlee, a new agent at Howland Literary, who is starting to build a #KidLit focused list (PB-YA). Here is my quintessential #MSWL 🧵with what I hope to find!

While I am not open to queries just yet, I have a #MSWL profile you can check out for a preview on what I'll be looking for in the future! 😉
