Manuscripts in other categories will still be considered! You can see more of my #MSWL at manuscriptwishlist.com
Please note that I may not be open for queries for a solid stretch between now and October, so always check my website to see if I'm open before you email me!

I am open to queries! I need to prioritize current authors, so right now there are very specific types of books that I will be paying closer attention to.
Submission instructions are at dunhamlit.com, and this graphic will hopefully also help you plan when to query me.

I’ll be opening up for queries soon, and I’m doing something a little different this time! I will focus on only a handful of categories at a time. Keep reading for🧵 #amagenting

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

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.

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

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.

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!)
