Lookin for more #kidlit #graphicnovels in my inbox 👀 #mswl

*whispers* I will finally be opening for queries after almost a year of being closed. My query inbox will be open June 1st-15th and July 1st-15th. If you’re interested in what I’m looking for, check out my new #MSWL #queryingauthors #litagent

#Amquerying authors, it’s time for 2026 #MSWL refresh! As always, I am looking for YA, Adult, Graphic Novel, and select Nonfiction titles with a focus on commercial genre fiction from marginalized voices.

My reading taste is eclectic, but to give you some vibes, think of me for projects that are..

-A highly illustrated chapter book or young graphic novel from a BIPOC author-illustrator.
-A story set in Appalachia, featuring the region’s idiosyncrasies written by someone who knows them well.

I'm mostly hanging out on threads these days (come follow me over there! Though, tbh, threads is mostly "moe yells about hockey" 🐧 )

Guess who has opened to queries again! Click through the posts here for my visual #MSWL . #querytrenches #queryingauthors #amagenting

"I'm looking for voicey kid lit! For adult fiction, I'm still looking to grow my horror list and identity-driven book club fiction. I want to learn something new in non-fiction and find a project that helps others learn things in digestible ways." loveleemonicaa.bsky.social #mswl

For clarity, I only represent age categories MG and up. For MG & YA I’m open to all genres fiction and nonfiction. On the adult side I only work on genre-adjacent or genre-lite fiction (no straight contemporary or anything that wades too deeply into the genre space). #MSWL

Character-driven, humor-infused stories with a solid hook across formats—picture books, chapter books, graphic novels, and middle grade.

As editorial director at Kar-Ben, my #MSWL is all Jewish kids books. I want stories that feel contemporary, surprising, unpredictable, plot-driven, clever, fun, absurd, and/or whimsical, where the kid has agency and goes after their goals. How to submit:

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 I reopened to queries on Jan 15. Signed 2 new clients so far! I ONLY represent ADULT novels and ADULT graphic novels in these core categories: romance, science fiction, fantasy, and horror. More info at
triciaskinner.com/manuscript-wish-list-mswl/

For middle-grade (novels and GNs), I lean toward mysteries and puzzles. Light spookiness is okay, but nothing too scary creepy for me, please! Think THE GHOST OF SPRUCE POINT by Nancy Tandon (nancytandon.bsky.social, one of my clients) and GHOST SQUAD by Claribel A. Ortega.

This time for graphic novels 👀

Happy #MSWL day, writers! I rep MG, YA, and adult and am open to contemporary, historical, fantasy, sci-fi, speculative, and horror. I'm a BIG graphic novel person and I also do nonfiction as well! You can see my wish list & submission guidelines here:

#MSWL A few specific things I'd love to see: lady knights! Time loops! (I loved THE ISLE IN THE SILVER SEA by Tasha Suri) Historical detectives, like Sherlock Holmes or Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries, but with queer girls. Painterly graphic novels that still have a punchy hook.

Happy #MSWL day! I’m an associate agent at Azantian Literary Agency, building my list in YA, queer romance, select nonfiction, and graphic novels for all ages. Query me here!
