I’m looking for what I like to call “weird and wonderful” YA novels. Magic realism, or stories that blend genres to create something new. Examples: Wilder Girls by Rory Power, They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera, and The Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender by Leslye Walton. #MSWL

I represent creators of graphic novels and graphic nonfiction for all age categories. I’m particularly looking for graphic novel proposals that push the boundaries of the format—a book that NEEDS to be in a visual, sequential format. #MSWL

Some nonfiction books I love: Hello I Want to Die Please Fix Me, The Creative Act: A Way of Being, All the Gold Stars, Witches of America, Taschen’s The Library of Esoterica series, What We See in the Stars, The 2000s Made Me Gay, Trick Mirror, Nightmare Fuel. #MSWL

In nonfiction, send me proposals about art, the environment, pop culture, psychology, science, cultural history, and occult topics. Give me new perspectives on entertaining topics. #MSWL

Stylish mysteries and thrillers that rely on tropes but make them feel new. Give me the modern-day The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler. #MSWL

Some good comparison titles for my current taste in fiction: The Bloody Chamber, Death Valley, Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries, Bunny, My Year of Rest and Relaxation, Godkiller, Legends & Lattes, The Fake. #MSWL

In contemporary fiction: books with “sad girl” or “cool girl” vibes. #MSWL

In genre fiction: fantasy (shorter, mostly standalone books—epic fantasy series are not for me), grounded science fiction, magical realism, retellings of fairy tales, horror. #MSWL

The number one item on my wish list right now is upmarket and literary fiction. Contemporary or speculative. Anything strange, weird, or depressing is for me. #MSWL

Right now, I’m looking for a little bit of everything. Beautiful writing + a compelling sales hook is the key.

Thanks so much for the opportunity to speak about my #MSWL and what I love about my job! Always fun to take a break from my inbox and gush for a bit about books 😊

#MSWL : Psychological thrillers. If I don’t start doubting everyone by chapter three, what are we even doing? Bonus points for unreliable narrators, characters making very bad decisions, and at least one scene where I gasp out loud. 🔍😵 #amquerying

It's #MSWL day!! I'm currently closed to queries and working my way through, so this is going to be VERY specific. I'm hungry for BIPOC sports- and hobby-centric MG and YA. And in adult, BIPOC-led mysteries (including cozies) and thrillers. I don't get enough of either of these!! Link below:
