Y’all. I just finished KT client @JamiePacton ‘s THE VERMILLION EMPORIUM this past weekend and THIS is 100% my type of fantasy. Please, when I reopen to queries, send me projects with this vibe, this whimsy, this type of romance! ✨😍✨#MSWL

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

Quick PSA #amquerying writers - I’m getting a lot of projects with grief-related themes right now and that’s not really in line with the market across audiences or with my own personal interests! #MSWL #antiMSWL #amwriting #writingcommunity

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

And if you do write it, please query me with it!! #MSWL #amquerying #WritingCommunity #horsegirlhere

And finally, @ByGeorgeJreije’s SHAD HADID AND THE ALCHEMISTS OF ALEXANDRIA. I fell in love with this one because of the culture, the food and the frenetic fun. #amwriting #WritingCommunity #gobuyit #MSWL

Another just came to mind - @MariaJoseFitzg2’s forthcoming TURTLES OF THE MIDNIGHT MOON. I loved this magical eco-mystery and it’s strong cultural elements and setting. #MSWL #amquerying #WritingCommunity #onethatgotaway

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

As agents, we all have ‘ones that got away’. One of mine was Ginny Myers Sain’s DARK AND SHALLOW LIES. And I would love to see something like that in my inbox right now, #amquerying authors! #writingcommunity #MSWL #southerngothic #alltheatmosphere

Today’s the day #amquerying folks - I’m officially open to queries again! See pinned thread for my updated #MSWL!

And a few perennial #MSWL requests - wilderness stories, a new generation of #horsegirl books (would LOVE to see this from a #BIPOC author), logic, puzzles, whipsmart protagonists, morally grey characters. Can't wait to see great things in the inbox next week (10/25)!

animal/farm type stories. I have a few PB deals that have yet to be announced, but hopefully when they are it should give a better idea of my tastes here!

In the #picturebook #PB realm, I'm really focusing on culturally grounded stories from marginalized authors and non-fiction that focuses on lesser known heroes/historical figures/etc. Here I love folklore, non-western mythology, etc. I don't typically tend to gravitate toward -
