I don’t represent children’s picture books, but for the sake of my eight-year-old son, I’m open to chapter books for kids and teens. (He loves the Alex Rider series and I introduced him to old school Gordon Korman!)

I don’t represent romance, but would I turn down one that I immediately recognized as spectacular? No. Will I receive many? Not kidding myself.

I love dark crime thrillers, literary horror, suspense, complex espionage tales, genre mash-ups, whether they feature female or male protagonists.

I love atmosphere. A historical setting is a plus.

FOR FICTION, I’m drawn to exceptional writing, high-stakes, tightly plotted stories with momentum, unforgettable characters who leap from the page.

Summer reading means my Summer #MSWL ! Writers querying agents, listen up—as an agent, I represent both fiction and nonfiction. #amquerying

I plan to reopen by the end of summer, and once I do I'll probably stay open for a few months and then close again for a few months to get caught back up on subs. And then open again for the same. That tends to be my pattern.

Yes, please!!

And might as well note when I reopen I'll also be looking for fun, bonkers, glitzy, exciting New Adult contemporary & rom-com w/out speculative elements too!

I'd love to see some really unexpected, out-of-the-box stuff! Nice mashups of the weird and the fun with romance. #MSWL

And I'm also #MSWL looking for other New Adult settings that can have speculative elements thrown in: NA spy stories w/speculative, NA vacation stories with the same, NA movie set stories w/speculative.

Make it cozy, rompy, bonkers, 🔥unexpected🔥, glitzy!! I'm hungry for this.

#MSWL Something I'll be looking for when I reopen are ✨cozy New Adult fantasies✨ that blend fun, speculative elements, & romance w/spice.

I'll be looking for lots of variations including genre mixing, romcoms at magical colleges, contemporaries w/protagonists who have magic...

I am lovely this vein of comedic fantasy. You know, the high fantasy world meshed with a workplace romance/comedy, and an almost contemporary voice. I'd love something like that. ONWARD & ASSISTANT TO THE VILLIAN is kind of what I am thinking. #MSWL

Writers, I'm #opentoqueries and looking for unique nonfiction from subject matter experts of all kinds, Christian and GM. If you've got expertise and the ability to write an engaging book about it, send me your query! {Sub guidelines at link in profile} #mswl

❤️‍🔥

Also #mswl for like all these anime lmao

Adding to this: if you don't see an #MSWL that fits your book, but you think we might be a fit, feel free to send it in. I am looking to grow my novels list!

Here for the cozy YA mystery #MSWL

I really want a sweeping romance that you make go SQUEE with joy. Love enemies to lovers, grumpy/sunshine, slow burn tropes. #MSWL

I would love to get a fantasy. #MSWL

I feel like spec fic is having a moment so bringing this one back! #MSWL

I would literally shove any of my colleagues here at The Tobias Literary Agency if it meant I could get this. #MSWL
