Reading queries this happy Saturday morning and realizing I am such a sucker for novels in verse. #agentlife #querytip #amquerying #MSWL

VERY hungry for some new middle grade projects right now - send me your #MG mysteries, heartfelt contemporary, #ownvoices projects #amquerying writers! #MSWL Oh, and some dark stuff too. #horror #darkfantasy
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
And last but definitely not least, I'd love a #YA #native #ownvoices story like KT client @RoanhorseBex 's. What an amazing story. #agencylove #MSWL
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
And as much as I love the dark stuff, I equally adore a good #YA #romance and #MG or #YA #Humor! I love sharp wit and a good laugh. #MSWL
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
Oh, and serial killers - I'd love a good #YA serial killer story! #MSWL
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
I'd love a chilling #YA #Horror too - heavy atmosphere, heavy tension/anticipation. Scare me, please!! #MSWL #SouthernGothic
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
I'm also still looking for a wildly original #MG #fantasy a la THE NIGHT GARDENER or the SERAPHINA series. #MSWL
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · Jan 17
Hey all! I'm actively looking to sign a couple new clients in the New Year! Send me all your #ownvoices projects, especially those with strong cultural themes and immersive settings! #YA #MG #MSWL

For any of you who have a Teen-Girl-Becomes-Serial-Killer-Who-Targets-Misogynists-with-Overwhelming-Success manuscript sitting on your hard drive, have your agent submit it to me in the morning, please and thank you. #mswlAnd for unagented writers, please send these to me. #querytip #mswl

Now that I’m back open to queries here’s a bit of my #MSWL - YA near future Sci Fi, atmospheric Southern Gothic, and witches. All the witches. #MG #YA #diversevoices #ownvoices
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · 21 Mar 2018
Just read a query that made me so hungry for more #voudou #NewOrleans #haiti #southerngothic - any sort of cultural element in that realm. PLEASE! #mswl #MG # YA
Hilary Harwell @HilaryHarwell · 10 Feb 2018
Writers, please send me your #YA #magicalrealism projects! Was chatting with editors at #alamw18 today and that’s on their lists! #MSWL

On the hunt for wildly original #MG #fantasy, #paranormal, #magicalrealism and #mystery. Think RULES FOR STEALING STARS, THE NIGHT GARDENER, WINTERHOUSE, SERAPHINA AND THE BLACK CLOAK. #MSWLRTing because I'm seeing some great projects in the slush from this #MSWL! Keep 'em coming, writers!
