It's been a few years since I've been logged in, given so many a good change on the WEJ and JLA ends, but just wanted to give a shout-out: this one is open to queries! Send me goodies anytime! janczuklit.com // #MSWL: literary-commercial YA, adult; non-fiction; -p-books!

I'm going onto 4+ years of agenting, + I'm still super hungry for a good thriller (I've never gone on submission with one), a good memoir (also never sub'd), + good women's fiction (also never really sub'd), along with gem YA + otherwise. Send along! Open to queries! #MSWL

MG or YA in the vein of Madeline LβEngelβs A RING OF ENDLESS LIGHT. This book tackles some big, tough questions about death and love in such an eloquent, lyrical way and it will always hold a special place in my heart. #MSWLAlso this for me, in the strictly YA vein! #MSWL

MG or YA that comps to Tamora Pierceβs Tortall Universe, especially THE SONG OF THE LIONESS and IMMORTALS series. Intrigue! Adventure! Mythical creatures! Characters who kick butt! Expansive world building! Itβs an eternal #MSWL for me.Me too--especially the YA. I won't be representing MG anytime soon, it seems. #MSWL

Idk who's been checking in the #MSWL tweets, but just putting it out there, for anyone who's researching and building agent lists: bit.ly/39h6wKf. I will be re-opening to queries on 05/01, and want adult and YA fiction, and non-fiction. Getting there!

Literary Agent
Sometimes, I want to email my favorite authors + say, "Can I steal you for my agenting self, I love you so much?" I think I may start, at some point, out of desperation. Please send me your goodies when I re-open. Thirsty for the best YA and adult fiction. Hoping for 11/15. #MSWL

I'm reading emails, queries, and tweets in the midst of a Saturday spent judging varsity debate rounds. Oh, would I love a debate novel (#MSWL), YA or adult either. The varsity resolution debates the degree to which standardized tests ought to be used during college admissions.

Literary Agent
I had the joy of completing a new interview with @DarlingAxe, + I cover preferred genres (#MSWL -- fiction + non-fiction, for YAs + adults), submissions, the industry, + good books. Check out the full interview here: bit.ly/2kZ1ten.

I'd love a good novel that explores the affective/emotional life as a key plot development device. I'd also love of a novel that treats of healthy religiosity--for YAs or adults both. So often, religion is negatively grasped and/or understood as damaging. #MSWL

Literary Agent
It's late at night, but I'm re-opening to queries as of tonight--anything of YA and adult, fiction and non-fiction. Whatever you've got! #MSWL Sub. guidelines here: lightningbugspub.com/submissions/. HIT ME UP, + please just be patient, as I catch up on dozens of pieces.

Literary Agent
Also: an update, for anyone who is curious: W. will re-open to #queries on 8/1, after three conferences here and catching up some archived manuscripts + queries. #MSWL, for then (save the date!), includes a great thriller, contemp. YA, and adult sci-fi. bit.ly/2p3a5iO

@WeronikaJanczuk Wondering if you're interested in YA dystopian/post-apocalyptic dealing with AI and a concept I call "human-zoos". I remember seeing a tweet once vaguely referencing something MSWL related. #mymemoryisgarbageI am willing to look at anything, including YA dealing with AI! Execution is most important for this one. #MSWL

Literary Agent
I'm #MSWL-ing for re-tellings (#adult or #YA) of myths, folktales, or fairytales. Always. Bring it. More. Had the chance to look at #queries and pages for an @OpAwesome6 #passorpages, and had lots to say: bit.ly/2QisRya. I encourage you all to think through m'#querytip!

Last little toss in for #MSWL tonight, with guidelines on m'blog: bit.ly/2p3a5iO; looking for wide range of #YA & adult fiction!
Want to see some kickass sci-fi and science fantasy, and any epic fantasy that blows my mind with genre-bending world-building. Think HUGE!

Literary Agent

Literary Agent
