I'm also acquiring the select picture book! I'm looking for heartfelt stories about marginalized folks' experiences, nonfiction bios, and laugh-out-loud pbs with sneaky adult humor.

- BIPOC rom-coms, friend-coms, and coming-of-age stories not exclusively centered around POC trauma
- Sweeping historical fiction / magical realism, especially stories about non-white history

MIDDLE GRADE:
- contemporary, joyful, humorous slice-of-life stories about marginalized characters and their middle school problems

Noticing a lot of YA in my query inbox lately, so sending out a quick reminder that I'm only looking for adult projects at the moment. Take a look at the other amazing @PSLiterary agents who DO represent young adult novels, and consider querying one of them instead! #MSWL

Between 1899 and her death, in 1962, the photographer Lora Webb Nichols created and collected some 24,000 negatives documenting life in her small Wyoming town, whose fortunes boomed and then busted along with the region’s copper mines. nyer.cm/LGyNjSGThese are very very worth seeing, and #MSWL

As a female engineer I am looking for middle grade, YA and PB about girls in STEM. All genres. Who achieve their goals thru bravery and not necessarily confidence. I want some real models not role models for our young women. #mswl #WritingCommnunity

A convo with @RavynnKaMia just made me realize there's a lack of murderous/vengeful black women in media and l now need to see a black woman channel their inner Cersei and get their Dracarys moments.
