Also #MSWL If anyone is querying an Adult feminist dystopian or a MG that feels like a true crime documentary, please comment so I can drop you a direct query link. As always— queer and marginalized voices welcome

Adding that I'm still so hungry for pacey lesbian thriller, especially anything that can be described as Master of the House but lesbian. If that's your book, let me know. 👀

#MSWL

Literary / commercial-literary horror - see above…

Graphic novels across the market, but see 🧵 for general themes that I’m interested in.

Literary / commercial-literary romance. Especially if bi / pan / queer. I’m looking for both something sweeping & epic, & something more contemporary.

#MSWL

I’m prioritizing BIPOC and queer & trans writers atm! I’m really hunt for
- MG horror & mystery
- YA horror & mystery
- Adult spec fic, gothic horror, horroromance, romantasy
- sister stories
- mother daughter stories
- mermaids
- stories in the PNW, Appalachia, or arctic!
- dual timelines

#MSWL for the most outrageous MG comparable to TROLLS with Princess Poppy and Branch (sunshine + grumpy) vibes, but make it queer with just as much glitter, sparkles, and absurdity. Seriously.

Something about fall is putting me in a romantic mood. In addition to my usual list, I'm now craving Romance on my #mswl Contemporary, Historical, Thriller, Suspense, Horror--I'd love them in my inbox please! (Please remember I'm not taking Romantasy)(LGBT, POC, disabled is a +)

I have a number of brilliant contemp romance writers on my list, so I am particularly keen to find something different there. Love stories with an underrepresented culture or experience at the centre will be most welcome. BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ writers, I'd love to hear from you!

I’m still waiting on the big announcement, but I’m so excited to share that I’ve joined the incredible team @HowlandLit where I’ll be building my list in picture books, MG, and adult. Check out my #MSWL and find me on Query Manager

Reminder that my query box is OPEN, link in pinned post. #mswl tldr: Hard sci fi with feels, spec fic with disability rep, queer romance. Full mswl at my profile on the CLA site. (pinned post) #amquerying #amagenting

Other specifics: ABOVE ALL, I prioritize diverse own voices from marginalized communities which is why November is diverse only. I am open to queer romance of all genres and age groups. I would love more author / illustrators for graphic novels and picture books. #MSWL (4/6)

I'm not participating in PitDark, because I have some exciting news! I will be opening to queries for the first week in November (1-7) to diverse own voices ONLY. Starting January 2025, I'll open the first week of every month to everyone. #MSWL (1/6)

Some #MSWL -y thoughts about what I’d love to see in my inbox:

•MG about space, fiction or non-fiction! My mom works on glass used in the aerospace industry; I have a lifelong fascination with all things outer space.

•Trans authors!

•Adult queer romance with asexual heroes!

Well, it happened. SO excited to share I’ve joined the amazing team @jenazantian has assembled at Azantian Literary Agency as an associate agent, repping MG, YA, queer adult romance, and nonfiction! Editors, please say hi—I’d love to chat!

And always on the hunt for more queer adult and YA romance! Especially if it has a speculative twist! #mswl

Agents, I'd also love to find my queer cozy fantasy or romantasy I want the low stakes, strong vibes. Or the high stakes and swoonworthy shadow daddies...iykyk #mswl
