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)

There are some exciting #YA titles on my desk at @vulpine_press! I'm building a list of quality #YAlit with well-realized worlds and complex characters. If there's a pinch of magic, all the better! #MSWL #amquerying #amwriting #WritingCommunity vulpine-press.com/submissions-1

sometimes the books just happen to feature queer and/or BIOOC characters existing in ways that don’t center trauma. There is value in that too. Y’all let white/cishet books just exist without speaking to some profound life lesson. Keep that same energy with us.THIS!
These are the books I want. #MSWL

@pushthepanorama So encouraging, thanks for posting! Quick question: You've listed a lot of details on what you seek for MG & YA novels, but none for Graphic Novels. Do all those points apply to GNs too or...?Asking because I'm close to signing with an agent and sending out my debut MG GN!🙏😊
Hi Ashok! My middle grade and young adult details #mswl apply to prose, verse, and graphic novels so it definitely encompasses my GN tastes 😊
Congrats on your querying journey! It sounds like 2022 is heading towards a bright spot!

Okay but can we PLEASE make 'cosy fantasy' a thing like ASAP? Don't get me wrong, I love dark and twisty books, but sometimes I just want to lose myself in another world without having to wonder when my favourite character's gonna get stabbed in the face.
