I love Literary Speculative/Dystopian that makes me worry about the future.

🧵 Submission details can be found on the HS LA website, but I am especially keen to see in my #MSWL :

-book club and literary fiction, especially if featuring people going through difficult circumstances or written by Irish authors. E.g Shuggie Bain or My Name is Leon.

Haven’t seen much Southern fiction in my Query Manager. Also open to contemporary, historical, romance, literary, inspirational, YA, thriller…and more! Brandyvallance.com / barbarabovaliteraryagency.com #mswl #amquerying #literaryagent

Future #MSWL & QM update:
I have less than 40 undecided queries/submissions. I plan to reopen mid-late January to a few genres. This info is not on my website or MSWL page yet— it’s just a head’s up and I hope it’s helpful!

✨ ADULT FICTION✨
• contemporary romance - think Emily Henry but low spice or Melissa Ferguson
• upmarket / book club
• cozy mysteries

✨ NONFICTION✨
- same as what’s on website -

✨ KIDLIT ✨
• PB/MG/YA - classic-style with a literary bent. Secret Garden. Bridge to Terabithia. Winnie-the-Pooh.
• PB - humorous character-driven series

‼️Not looking for SEL or rhyme.‼️

before i re-open to queries (please send me your weirdest & wildest), i whipped up a little something to show what i'm looking for these days:

@MarilynBiderma Senior Literary Agent and Partner at TA is opening up to queries from November 27th until December 15th!

Find more details in the attached graphics. #mswl #queryme #pitchme #litagent

Contemporary #YA with a literary voice about ordinary teens dealing with life, family, relationships, friendships falling apart, sexuality, mental health, or recovery. A blend of genre and literary would be best of all.

“I am looking for compelling novels by contemporary literary fiction writers.”

In that nebulous category of "literary/upmarket fiction," I favor character-driven narratives in which identity is the unique lens through which the character engages with society, but it's not the story in itself. Trauma, turmoil—these should be vehicles for understanding

It pains me to do this, but I'll be closing to YA/MG queries for a while starting at the end of this month. My focus right now is on signing adult literary/upmarket fiction & nonfiction, and I want to give fair consideration to my existing backlog of kidlit queries. #MSWL

I'm back for the writers 🫶 & looking for high concept fiction of all varieties... especially fast paced historical fiction, contemporary psychological suspense, un putdown-able women's, and you know, just your average literary masterpiece 😉 send queries #MSWL #WritingCommunity

"Send me your illustrated picture books with literary sensibilities. I'm looking for whimsical stories, fascinating nonfiction, and stunning art."

I've given my what I'm looking for a bit of a tidy up. If you are a writer of literary, upmarket, and book club fiction seeking representation, I'd love to hear from you! #MSWL #amwriting #amquerying

I want a novel about a psychopath but like not a thriller but like a literary novel of this person being bored and deciding to fuck shit up in a mundane but unhinged way #mswl
