MG fiction favorites & comps I’d love to see: THE RIVERMAN, SMALL SPACES, GHOST (the TRACK series), HIDE AND SEEKER, GREENGLASS HOUSE, THE CANNING SEASON

Middle grade fiction: Horror, mystery, grounded stories with a speculative element, magical realism/fabulism, big-hearted contemporary, & adventure stories.

"In the middle grade space, I love grounded fantasy, magical realism, or any stories with light touches of magic."

I rep PB, MG, YA, GN, and select A genres. I keep my MSWL fairly up-to-date. There are a few areas that I'd love to build my list our more robustly in the coming months. #MSWL

#MSWL: MG writers! 📣

I’ve reopened QM to middle grade only, all genres except sci-fi.

My PM, MSWL, & website say “no horror,” but I’m now accepting MG horror because it’s the only level of horror I can handle. 😂

I’m planning to reopen to other genres in April. 🌷

I'd really love to see middle grade projects by black authors that center black kids/teens that spin (ie make new & unique) old school & current favs like Babysitters Club, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Harry Potter, Matilda, Peter Pan, a modern Narnia, Treasure Island + more #MSWL

YA/NA #MSWL: I am looking for a horror from a BIPOC writer that can be comp’d to The Hacienda/Mexican Gothic/She Is a Haunting/Bad Witch Burning. And YA contemporary fantasies from BIPOC writers who are also interested in writing MG.

MG #MSWL: I am looking for a grounded science fiction story set five minutes in the future that’s Super 8 meets The Arrival/Tales From The Loop/DEVS (but from an MG perspective), and which also includes a strong parental presence.

"I'm looking for MG, YA, and adult graphic novels. I'm open to a wide range of styles and genres! If you have a graphic novel, I want to see it!"

#mswl: middle grade contemporary w a great voice and a big hook! I love Kelly Yang, Cece Bell, Maleeha Siddiqui, Hena Khan, and Ali Benjamin to name a few!

I’d love to see your contemporary #MG story that the world needs to read. If it has a big hook and an urgent voice (like these two books I’ve had the honor of selling) all the better #MSWL

My birthday is next month!
Agents, here's what I want from my #MSWL. 🎁
Send me your MG novels, send me your YA novels. Here are some of my very favorite things 🧵:

I can’t sleep so I’m posting my updated #mswl as I’ll be reopening to queries March 1st. Please note I’m no longer looking for YA in any genres/sub genres. Query me at: QueryManager.com/carolinejtruss…

One more week til I open to queries, #amquerying folks! Make sure to check out my #MSWL via the link in my bio and send relevant #PB #MG and #YA projects my way starting March 1! #writingcommunity #amwriting #kidlit

Here's my #MSWL link! Can't wait to hear from you soon!! 🥳

4. books about the dynamics of friendship groups—I’d love something YA or MG with the feel of NOW & THEN, but more diverse (Celia Pérez’ STRANGE BIRDS does this really well, eg)

2. something like SLIDING DOORS but funny! (or perhaps what i’m wishing for is a YA or MG EEAAO). the two roads/what if thing is usually deployed in the context of loss or tragedy, but I’d devour a story where someone’s universe is split over something absurd
