As I get ready to open up to queries on Oct. 1st, here's a #MSWL of what I'm looking for! If you're unsure if your project would be a good fit based off of this list, that's okay. Please still consider querying me 😊
*Any fulls I have are still being considered

Some more #MSWL items for me:
•Middle grade science fiction like Insignia by S.J. Kincaid, which I loved
•Epistolary fiction like Several People Are Typing by Calvin Kasulke
•Lyrical, literary, lush contemporary (or contemporary-ish) YA—again, Jandy Nelson comes to mind

I represent these genres but I am also not limited to these genres: Historical, Literary, Women’s Fiction, Southern Fiction, Sci-fi, Fantasy, YA, Adventure, Speculative, Inspirational, Thriller. brandyvallance.com / barbarabovaliteraryagency.com #mswl #amquerying
Literary Assistant
- magical realism
- literary fiction that feels *playful* and *joyful* about the genre, rather than snobbish and gatekeep-y. I have no fear of the weird or wacky, so long as it has something intelligent and important to say.
- fiction about unconventional relationships
#mswl
Literary Assistant
- speculative fiction
(I prefer grounded, literary sci-fi + fantasy. few secondary worlds, but rather our world steeped in liminal magic and/or technology. anything creepy, toothy, gritty, strange, something that sends a shiver down your spine.)
- steampunk everything
#mswl
Literary Assistant
in terms of GENRES and NARRATIVES, I love:
- dark academia
- horror
- gothic, esp. regional gothic
- character-led literary fiction
- historical + alternate history, particularly 19th and 20th century and particularly focused on international, BIPOC, and LGBTQIA+ stories

hello! it's been a minute — so here's a quick #mswl for any #amquerying authors. 🧵♥️first, I'm someone who's always been gripped first by VOICE, WRITING STYLE, and PROSE. so I'm looking for:
- anything in the book club, upmarket, literary spaces
- lush, poetic writing – or sparse, bare prose
- deep and intricate world/lore-building (when applicable)

#MSWL would love a story featuring a septuagenarian or octogenarian group of friends in genres of literary fiction, thriller, women’s fiction, etc but want older protagonists both cute and taking no shit similar to THURSDAY MURDER CLUB
