Such a moving story! This is what led me to ask for something similar on my #MSWL ...but what could be better than signing the man behind the film himself? 🤩

A more detailed #MSWL is on my website: kathleenfoxxagent.com/mswl (as well as other info).

Thank you for reading! I look forward to seeing your query and wish you great success in 2024! ☺️✨📖

/ 🧵

Nudges are ok! I don’t bite. :) Please understand that it can take several weeks to respond, but I will respond regardless. I was flooded with over 1100 queries in my first 12 weeks and am still backlogged, but am working my way through it.

DO NOT QUERY ME VIA EMAIL, WEBSITE FORM, OR DM. These will be deleted and unread. Please only use my Query Manager link to query me (unless you’ve been referred or I’ve asked you to query me via email).

QueryManager.com/query/KatFoxx

DO send me:

Diversity in writers and in their stories, LGBTQIA+ stories, etc.

Swearing in books is totally fine, but if it’s over the top and unwarranted, it becomes distasteful.

Ensure voice, curiosity, and tension are in your opening pages!

Also please do NOT send me:

Erotica—it’s just not my thing
Anything religious. I’m not religious at all.
Stories over 110K words, especially for a debut
Stories that are not yours to tell

DO NOT send me:

Anything generated by AI; AI is not art, it’s a copout. It’s ok for research only.
Epic fantasies like LOTR
Sci-fi, space operas, robots, etc. I’m not a science-y person
Anything political, incl vaccination debates and trump supporters
Extreme violence
(Cont’d…)

Stuff I love (no particular order):

Old world Europe
Outlander
Travel
Babies
Soulmates/Past lives
Animals—esp kitties!
Wine, chocolate, coffee
Tear-jerkers like This Is Us
You’ve Got Mail
Witches, ghosts
Back to the Future
Jon Krasinski
Tom Hanks
Ryan Reynolds
Every Summer After

…ancient civilizations/locations in the vein of Ancient Apocalypse.

Memoirs must read like fiction & are not life stories/diaries; it’s an event that changed your life drastically & was greatly affected by external circumstances (brings universality into your personal struggle)

Spiritual (*not* religious) explorations of past lives, reincarnations, soul connections, etc. Tarot, palm readings, astrology.
Other: true crime, wine/wineries, wine & food pairings (especially with travel), empaths, history of witches & witchcraft…

The “brotherhood” mentality of law enforcement and how the criminal justice system is anything but just. How it negatively impacts and further traumatizes victims of any kind of abuse, giving permission to the “bad ones” to be bad.

NONFICTION I’d love to see:

I’m hugely drawn to natural/unassisted childbirth, pregnancy, & motherhood. Informative & heartwarming. Ina May Gaskin is my hero! Highlighting how Big Pharma has medicalized birth (in the vein of The Business of Being Born).

Across the board, I’d love to see stories that normalize blended, single-parent, adoptive, racially and/or culturally diverse, and same-sex families and relationships.

Speculative Fiction: like our world, but one or two big differences. Less of a pull for me, but if you have something unputdownable with a massive hook, send it my way!

Romance: although this is not my main jam, I do love romance with time travel, soulmates, past lives, reincarnation, second-chances, etc. Light spice. Romcoms are also great!

I am *not* looking for epic fantasies, kingdoms/kings/queens/princes/princesses, etc. I would like fantasy/magical realism in the way of time travel, witches, past lives, reincarnations, etc.

Historical fiction: I prefer pre-20th century.

My main jam is thrillers, so I’d love to see more in this area. This includes horror (supernatural horror, not slasher horror), mystery, suspense, domestic thriller, psychological, etc. Fast-paced, high tension, high stakes, please! Ghosts & haunted houses are a huge draw for me.

FICTION: I’m only looking for Adult and YA atm. I’ve been flooded with MG this fall and am currently not looking to expand my MG client list, but check back in the future. My agency coworkers Jes Trudel and Stacey Kondla are wonderful MG agents!

Happy New Year, #WritingCommunity ! I'm officially back open for queries with a few minor changes. If you're considering querying me, please read this thread for an updated #MSWL . 👇🏻
