And lastly, for any #AmQuerying #kidlit authors, please send your material directly to me (the link to my page on our agency website is floating around but I will also pin) and tell me twitter sent ya x

A more detailed (read: rambling) mswl can be found here but as I say on it, I love being surprised, if you can send me something I love that I didn't think to ask for I will love you forever manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/deirdre-power/

Middle grade fantasies that are set in our world (so low/lighter on the fantasy side), or stories with a meta layer to them a la lemony snicket, detective fiction, and STEM

Picture books with heart and humour! Anywhere on the scale of funny to gentle, please just send your best three texts.

Also for teen/YA - all your thrillers, murder mysteries, horrors. Please send your heists and spies. Ally Carter is an auto-buy, and my new fave is Ravena Guron.

YA romance/romcoms - if I had to pick just one thing, this is definitely the asylum where they raised me. Some faves: Michelle Quach, Ann Liang, Eva desLauriers, Emma Lord, Huntley Fitzpatrick, Emma Mills, Sophie Gonzales, William Hussey, Stephanie Perkins - you get the idea
