So, agents and authors, I am closing to submissions on March 1 to allow time to review everything before I go on leave. If you have plans to query me, please get your submission in and direct your query to me (@fluxbooks or @jollyfishpress) before the deadline.(2/5)
As far as my #mswl goes, right now I’m looking for mostly character-driven YA with a killer voice featuring one or more of these things:
-intersectional feminist and environmentally conscious themes
-activism
-LGBTQIA+ characters (esp. trans, bisexual, and asexual youth)
(3/5)

- Other diverse experiences, such as neurodiversity, mental illness, physical disabilities, chronic illness, or non-nuclear/“found” families
- Compulsively page-turning YA thriller with deep emotional engagement
- Immersive YA high fantasy that’s dark, twisty, and queer AF (4/6)

- Stories featuring LGBTQIA+ characters! (esp. trans, bisexual, and asexual youth—though not necessarily with a focus on coming out)
- Stories featuring characters from racially or culturally diverse backgrounds (3/6)
