Contemporary children's comics that, can't stress this enough, get weird with it. I want events, choices, and dialogue that are surprising but still feel natural within the context of the book. I talk a lot about wanting "remark"-able events; scenes that readers will tell someone about. #MSWL

I'm feeling sappy lately and want to read the most unapologetically angsty romantic arcs you've ever seen in children's fiction. I was raised on magical girl stories; you can't scare me. (Please not that I don't rep MG/YA category romance in prose but love a romance subplot in fantasy.) #MSWL

In the spirit of #MSWL day, here's what I'm craving in children's comics and MG/YA fantasy: any trope in Kingdom Hearts but especially amnesia plots, complex betrayals, friends separated for magical reasons and trying desperately to reach each other, and mysterious lore that's somehow consistent.

I'm definitely looking for more submissions from people who write and illustrate graphic novels. #MSWL I've found I don't connect as strongly with just graphic novel texts, which is why I usually prefer to see sample pages of graphic novels from author-illustrators, for any children's age group.

#MSWL Day is here!

I'm seeking more narrative nonfiction for children and adults. Think THE MONA LISA VANISHES (Day) or Candace Fleming's books for kids.

More like THE ART THIEF (Finkel) or NO HUMAN INVOLVED (Neely) for adults. Also seeking nonfiction that really brings setting to life!

#mswl I've received very few graphic novel proposals since re-opening to queries, so I want to shout from the rooftops that, as a graphic novelist myself, children's comics are my jam and I want to see all of your pitches! Comics are so important!

#mswl I adore will-they-won't-they romance, slow burn, established pairings, and more. I'm open to all YA graphic novels including romcom, but for prose I'm strictly open to children's fantasy, spy, and heist, not contemporary romance. It was listed in error on querytracker, now fixed.

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

Newly opening to: Graphic Novels!

I'm looking for tightly plotted adventures with a strong hook and an elevated art style. I'm interested in similar themes as in prose: children or teenagers tackling unjust systems, an intense first emotional experience connected to a larger social topic.

Oh, and I should note I’ll be re-opening to queries on March 1, so please do keep me in mind as you prepare your query lists for pb, mg, ya, and everything in between (as long as it’s for children). Once I reopen, my query guidelines will be live at QueryTracker.net/query/michel... #MSWL

Children’s Lit

Book with series potential that follow a play pattern, i.e. a format to follow with the story and remain invested: shipping wars, districts/factions/houses, mysteries, patterns that serve as a through line for the book, a calling card

Across both adult and children’s markets, I’m looking for work that radically reimagines the ways in which we live and interact #mswl

Looking for more commercial fiction, literary fiction, platform-driven nonfiction, commercial children's books & graphic novels.

I know MOST about this from a US perspective, but open to any nationality or court/prison system. Really just want to talk about, think about, and learn about abolition. #mswl

Still looking for creators writing abolitionist works - been thinking a lot about what I'd like to represent in the adult and children's nonfiction space, and talking about inadequacies of our court and prison systems is very important to me as a human #mswl

I represent fiction and non-fiction for adults and children. Yes, that's pretty much everything. But...

📣CALLING OUT FOR SUBMISSIONS📣
