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

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

be it tongue-in-cheek a la client @HenryCClark 's WHAT WE FOUND IN THE CORN MAZE AND HOW IT SAVED A DRAGON, or the occasional fart joke. Please make me laugh!

I'm currently being very selective in the #middlegrade category, but here I'd happily take a look at #horror, #mysteries, stories with quirky characters a la client @merrill_wyatt 's Sloane and Amelia in forthcoming TANGLED UP IN LUCK. Also, I love humor in middle grade -

This, please, send this to me!! #MG #archaeology #ownvoices 👇👇👇#MSWL

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! 🎉✌🏼

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: 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!

#MSWL alert: I am VERY HUNGRY for middle grade projects right now! Fun MG mysteries, adventures, spooky paranormal, inventive fresh grounded fantasy, especially from folks from traditionally marginalized groups. #MG #paranormal #ownvoices #fantasy #mystery #adventure

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

#MSWL - #ownvoices #marginalizedvoices friendship-based adventure a la Goonies, please! #MG #YA #amquerying #amwriting

#MSWL - Spooky #MG, MG #Horror, #dark MG fantasy - think THE NIGHT GARDENER, SERAFINA, THE CIRCUS OF STOLEN DREAMS - #amquerying folks!

Hey #DVPit folks- just a reminder - if I miss your pitch and you think we'd be a good fit, please query! I'm especially hungry for #YA #mystery, #horror, #thriller, #romcom and #MG #horror #humor #graphicnovel right now! #MSWL

#MSWL alert! I'd love to see #mg stories of how kids are forming friendships in the time of social distancing! #graphicnovel would be a plus! #covid #amquerying #amwriting

Reading queries this Saturday morning. Realized I'd LOVE to see a #YA or #MG #tarot themed story in my inbox! #MSWL #Tarotcards #TarotReading #Southerngothic #NoLA setting would be a plus!

Loving all these #horror submissions in my #slushpile!! #MG #YA #MSWL Bring em on #amquerying writers!
