And horror! Send me your horror picture books.

#MSWL I would really love to see some picture books in my inbox right now from authors and author/illustrators. Send me your fresh concepts please. I love humor with BIG heart, dark humor, superb informational fiction, and lyrical stories that tug on my heart.

"I'm interested in pop culture histories in the vein of PAPERBACK CRUSH: THE TOTALLY RADICAL HISTORY OF '80s AND '90s TEEN FICTION and THE GREATEST NIGHT IN POP."

I’m on the hunt for voicey narration, juicy drama, and emotions that are so big they feel like the end of the world. I love mess! #mswl

I'll be accepting queries for all of December and possibly past that. If you want to make sure I see it, please try to get your query in before the new year, but I'm hoping to keep my inbox open more regularly. ✨📚✨

Hey #amquerying writers and illustrators, I'm open to queries for children's graphic novels and children's fantasy, spy, and heist novels! You can find my #mswl here: jdlit.com/tori-sharp

"Send me dark retellings of fairy tales and classic stories, with similar sensibilities to THE BLOODY CHAMBER by Angela Carter or WICKED by Gregory Maguire."

"I want unlikely friendship novels with heavy plot and a feel-good ending."
Carly Watters #MSWL

In any genre I represent, it’s hard to make something too dark or unhinged for my tastes, as long as it’s interesting.

"I want crime fiction like Louise Penny, Sue Grafton and Janet Evanovich."

A bit specific... #mswl I'm looking for commercial fiction that treats feminine lineage + forgotten power as serious, political, alive in the modern world. Not goddess-core... something with the gravity of Mists of Avalon, but contemporary and propulsive. #litagent

"Send me history, business, politics, current affairs, memoir."
curtisrussell.bsky.social #MSWL

"Send me nonfiction by BIPOC food writers."
Carly Watters #MSWL

"Send me Gothic fiction with possibly a modern storyline, too (like MEXICAN GOTHIC and THE LITTLE STRANGER)."
Carly Watters #MSWL

"Seeking generational stories of parenthood and family with non-binary and/or trans characters in the commercial or historical adult fiction genre (ie. heavy with plot!)"
Carly Watters #MSWL

"I'm looking for a heartwarming middle grade novel about animals. Ex: PAX by Sara Pennypacker, SILVERWING by Kenneth Oppel, and SANTA PAWS by Nicholas Edwards."

#MSWL A YA or NA historical romance with a swoony love story and a strong hook in a setting that feels different. While regency England can be fun, I’d love something that hasn’t been done before. Bonus if it’s an LGBTQIA historical romance.

"Romance novels like HOW TO END A LOVE STORY, LEFT OF FOREVER, ALIVE AND WELLS, NORA GOES OFF SCRIPT."
