In general, I'm drawn to strong voice and characters we can get deep within. Distant writing makes it hard for me to connect, so I'm probably not the best agent for those.

Give me nuanced villains, realistic conflicts, & new perspectives

In Adult, my main focus will be historical, contemporary romance, and select fantasy/paranormal. Adult is a harder sell for me, so it HAS to really be unique, new, and with strong voice/conflict

I prefer MG to be a bit more mature. If it’s under 30k, it most likely too short for me or doesn’t have enough build to grab me. I like things to be really fleshed out, to fall into the world and wish to stay

In YA & MG, I really want historical, paranormal, contemporary, fantasy (of all kinds!), and non-graphic horror

Keep in mind, I'm super on the hunt for LGBTQ+, diverse voices, and new settings/events/creatures that aren't mainstream

Nonfiction (maybe prescriptive?) by a futurologist #mswl

If you’re writing anything like THE HAUNTING OF BLY MANOR or HILL HOUSE (or any other adult horror) please keep me in mind! #MSWL

#MSWL!!!!!!!

Only 3 more weeks until I open to queries at @BrittSiessCM on Nov 1st! I'm really looking forward to seeing some fantastic graphic novel queries. I'm particularly on the lookout for standout contemporary stories! #MSWL

#MSWL tbh—I loved these books as a teenager.

I would love to see something like this. #mswl

I am listening to BOYS OF ALABAMA by @genhudson on audio, & it's just what I always dream of in Southern fiction: It explores everything that's beautiful & ugly about the South, with a touch of magic. It's stunning. #MSWL

#MSWL I would love a YA contemporary following an 18 year old who’s recruited into military service. Something that explores the complex socioeconomic issues pushing teens to enlist
