🎉 Thrilled to tweet that I am once again open to queries.

I represent passionate authors & illustrators who wholeheartedly believe in the power of storytelling for young readers (including YA!).

My #MSWL for 2022 includes (simplified ... because ... Twitter 😅):

Still looking for the perfect (realistic-ish) MG animal novel to add to my list. 🐅 #MSWL

“Middle grade animal stories like Pax by Sara Pennypacker, Silverwing by Kenneth Oppel, Bunnicula by Deborah and James Howe, and Santa Paws by Nicholas Edwards.” @agentvicente  #MSWL mariavicente.com/representation

The Fantasy I am still looking for is:

- fantasy written by and starring BIPOC
- literary poetic prose (especially in MG—think Kelly Barnhill)
- folkloric quality/grounded in history (Alice Hoffman; Rena Rossner; my wonderful client Mary McMyne)

Here is a link to my wish list! manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/bonn…

Hey #WRITINGCOMMUNITY & #AMQUERYING authors, I am open for queries 7/11-7/15! I am looking for under-represented authors only at this time, so click the link if you fit the qualifications. No YA. PB, MG, and adult only as well. QueryManager.com/2174

“I would love to see middle grade historical fiction that has a unique commercial hook and strong voice.” @adriamgoetz #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

Stunning. Empowering. Unique. Entrancing. A must read #mg

#mswl a book like this.

And, finally, and in perpetuity until I find it, give me a funny, commercial middle-grade mystery series told in first person by a BIPOC lead! #MSWL

I’m also interested in a friendship YA or MG that comps to SISTERHOOD OF THE TRAVELING PANTS, but with an entirely BIPOC cast. #MSWL

I’m curious to see some middle-grade rom-com! Show me your sweet tween love stories! #MSWL

“In the middle grade space I love grounded fantasy, magical realism, or any stories with light touches of magic.” @adriamgoetz #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/

“Stories that celebrate neurodiversity, from authors who are themselves neurodivergent, both in fiction and non-fiction, Middle Grade, Young Adult, and Adult.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

I adore the summer I got to dream all this and if someone ever sent me a MG novel that gave me these feels, I would sign them in a heart beat. #MSWL
