While I still have some full sub requests to dig into, I am *officially* down to query inbox zero, which means it's time to open to queries! You can now submit to me through QueryManager here: querymanager.com/query/BeccaPod…
So, what am I looking for in 2022? Here's an #MSWL

@pushthepanorama So encouraging, thanks for posting! Quick question: You've listed a lot of details on what you seek for MG & YA novels, but none for Graphic Novels. Do all those points apply to GNs too or...?Asking because I'm close to signing with an agent and sending out my debut MG GN!🙏😊
Hi Ashok! My middle grade and young adult details #mswl apply to prose, verse, and graphic novels so it definitely encompasses my GN tastes 😊
Congrats on your querying journey! It sounds like 2022 is heading towards a bright spot!

Woke up and realized I didn't because it's not that kind of epic fantasy, no swords here, and felt a lot better until it hit me this is debut year and panicked for other reasons 🙃I love VERY DIFFERENT fantasy. The more genre-bending the better. Kritika's books blend epic fantasy (no swords!) with a touch of sci fi, STRONG sense of place, & strong contemporary relevance. If you're wondering what I mean by "very different fantasy" on #MSWL - add this TBR!

Okay but can we PLEASE make 'cosy fantasy' a thing like ASAP? Don't get me wrong, I love dark and twisty books, but sometimes I just want to lose myself in another world without having to wonder when my favourite character's gonna get stabbed in the face.

I’m open to queries again & I’ll be sending out some #mswl requests here and there! The first is for more #ya; I’d love to see rom-coms, family dramas, friends sticking together. I love dramas but I’m also in the mood to laugh right now; pls bring on the funny! #amwriting

“I’d really love to get more YA horror in my inbox. Smart horror. I don’t want gore, I want a story that creeps me out, and asks questions I don’t want answers to.” @ericsmithrocks #MSWL ericsmithrocks.com/mswl

Stayed up far too late finishing Reckless Girls by @LadyHawkins... perfect example of the sort of suspense I'm after at the moment. Escapist, feminist, chilling, a little bit sexy, multi POV, secrets-and-lies, a proper 'shut-the-front-door' ending... #mswl fodder indeed!
