Some #MSWL additions that I want right now⦠secret passageways in old houses, fully illustrated chapter books for all ages, Enola Holmes vibes, epistolary gothic horror with multiple narrators (like Dracula), fiber arts (Fiction or NF), STEM books heavy on the M.

I am a dog person, a whisky person, a classical and jazz person. I'm also a mother, a writer, an MCU geek, an amateur naturalist, and a Charlotte Mason educator. Hit me with what you've got that you think I'll enjoy! <3

Literary Agent
Give me books with religion that aren't *about* religion. If you have a manuscript that explores myth, faith, anthropology, philosophy, or the intersection of those, but isn't for an explicitly religious audience, I want to see it.

Literary Agent
Give me books about books. Characters who love books, make books, read books, wrote books. Lists of books. You get the picture. π

Literary Agent
I'd love books that help us see poverty from a new perspective, preferably from someone with experience living in poverty, but it could also be anyone who understands that when anyone is in poverty, we all are.

Literary Agent
I also want books on any topic that the family can read aloud together! Think Secret Garden, Gregor the Overlander, Narnia, Green Ember, the Penderwicks, and Understood Betsy (if you've read that one, you'd better mention it in your query!)

Literary Agent
Give me books for #generationartemis! All the space books EXCEPT space opera (sorry!)! Think Andy Weir, Mary Doria Russell, and Fonda Lee. Also more fiction picture books with space themes! Non-fiction is good too, but I want something fresh.

Literary Agent
I am not currently looking for political topics in fiction or non-fiction, sports topics, true crime, horror (unless it's gothic), westerns, WWII fiction, or erotica.
How about some specific things I do want?

Literary Agent
I have some favorite topics and genres. I have a soft spot for portal fantasies, magical realism, time slip, nature-heavy settings, popular science, religion, myth, philosophy, gothic fiction, handcrafts, biographies, and music.

Literary Agent
I represent fiction and non-fiction for adults and children. Yes, that's pretty much everything. But...
