Kortney Price, Agent, Holloway Literary

In #MG I would love to see a kid's perspective living somewhere like Oak Island during the hunt for treasure. I want to see the history, the mystery, the gold, and how the kids are the ones who find it! #MSWL #amquerying #amagenting

Hi #amquerying folks! Just a reminder that Corvisiero will be closing to queries on Dec 1! If you have a dark #YA thriller/contemporary/mystery or a #MG survial, those are at the top of my wishlist right now 😁 #mswl

Sometimes when the world seems like a dumpster fire, I distract myself by revamping my submissions interests. Check out my Extended Edition #mswl posts on my site! Here's #ya kortneyrprice.com/2018/09/28/you…

LAST one! Somehow it completely slipped my mind to mention that I'm now opening submissions for MG GRAPHIC NOVELS!!! I'm so excited to work on these stories so send them my way! #mswl

Another MG #mswl (I'll get to YA in a bit) is a clever mystery with lots of moving pieces. Think Westing Game by Ellen Raskin or Clue 🔎

I'm also still looking for my MG sci-fi "Shenanigans on the space station" manuscript... think prankster, trouble maker, or majorly accident prone characters who go on a wild adventure #mswl

I'm still searching for my MG survival story! Please send me your shipwrecks, deserted islands, mountains, forests, jungles, deep sea diving, lost in the big city, kayaking, camping trips gone wrong, treasure hunts… I'll take them all! #mswl

These elements can include character, theme, atmosphere, grit, style, voice, setting, world building.....any craft element that you want to highlight.

For example, "My story combines the humor of Shannon Hale's Austenland with the heart and action of Kenneth Oppel's Airborn in this MG role playing adventure gone wrong" (#MSWL, btw)

Saw Newsies @TheMuny last week... It. Was. Amazing! So, naturally, I have some Newsies based #MSWL to throw out there!

Replying to @kortney_price

2) The Newsies! When a ms features the "gang" of #MG boys (another ex. is lost boys) Rough & tough on the outside but still a family. #MSWL
