I've re-opened my Query Mgr for 2023. Note that 1) I am not opening to picture book subs, b/c that side of my list is full; and 2) I don't take cold queries in order to manage the volume (see QM page for deets)--HOWEVER (exception/#MSWL/QM link in next tweet)...

I look forward to reading all of the fabulous work that comes my way this year!✨

For the most part, my MSWL has stayed the same, but note that I'm no longer accepting nonfiction submissions! I've read so many lovely NF subs this year, but I'm taking a step back in 2023. If you have a NF sub out with me, it'll be passed along to another LB agent!

YA contemporaries! Again, I'm looking for YA that has MCs aged 16-18 in any of the genres listed above! Especially manuscripts that comp to HIGHLY SUSPICIOUS & UNFAIRLY CUTE and I KISSED SHARA WHEELER.
Literary Agent
Commercial contemporaries! Any fiction that features queer/BIPOC characters finding their way in life is for me! Think LUSTER, IT'S BEEN A PLEASURE, NONI BLAKE, or the fabulous genre-hopping THE VERIFIERS.
Literary Agent
Historical YA! Think under-explored BIPOC/queer stories like LAST NIGHT AT THE TELEGRAPH CLUB or THE DOWNSTAIRS GIRL and fun, academia-heavy gothics like ANATOMY!
Literary Agent
Mystery/thrillers! I'm especially looking for YA mysteries that comp to Holly Jackson, Courtney Summers, and Tiffany D. Jackson! For Adult, I'd love to see historical mysteries like DEAD DEAD GIRLS, academic mysteries like THE IT GIRL, and fun thrillers a la Stacey Willingham!
Literary Agent
Upper-YA & Adult Fantasy! Think historical reads like THE LAST MAGICIAN, A MARVELLOUS LIGHT, and BABEL and/or fun queer/BIPOC contemporaries like CARRY ON or LEGENDBORN. I'm not looking for epic/high fantasies, but send your grounded fantasies my way!
Literary Agent
Historical romances! Anything that comps to Evie Dunmore, Cat Sebastian, or Mimi Matthews with a queer, feminist, and/or BIPOC focus is for me! Also send holiday historicals like A HOLIDAY BY GASLIGHT my way!
Literary Agent
Contemporary romances! I'm looking for book-heavy reads like BOOK LOVERS; career-heavy reads like THE EX TALK; romances that talked grad school like LOVE IN THE TIME OF SERIAL KILLERS; romances that explored fandom like SPOILER ALERT; and sweet & emotional reads like REEL!

✨2023 MSWL✨It's that time of year for my updated #MSWL! I'm so excited to jump into a new year of reading all of your queries. Here's what I'm looking for:
Academia! Forgive me for desperately missing university, but I'm still looking for all of those old-book vibes. Dark academia historical mysteries; professor MC/love interests a la DANI BROWN; and an abundance of libraries!

One more #mswl I am a sucker for undiscovered worlds on dangerous species underground in cave systems. Properly obsessed.

Willow is awesome. I love a good quest in fantasy.
This is definitely a #mswl

Would love a satirical fiction submission about a megachurch. If anyone's writing one pitch me query@psliterary.com #mswl

#mswl I am really into my gothic horror at the moment. Especially if you can comp Crimson Peak, Nothing but Blackened Teeth, or Dracula.

Friendships are the new romance! I want stories showing found family and friendships through their ups and downs #mswl
Literary Agent
I want more brooding teens with wells of power but surprisingly squishy hearts like in Naomi Novik’s Schoolomance #mswl
Literary Agent
In adult fantasy I always want a little romance with my magic like in A Marvelous Light by Freya Marske #mswl
Literary Agent
Recently more interested in stories of people interacting with animals or the natural world and could really enjoy narrative nonfiction or novels that speak to our relationship to the planet #mswl
