Hi #amquerying crowd, I am so excited to be opening to queries on September 9th!!

Below are some specific #MSWL comps that I’d love to see, but is by no means an exhaustive list:

I'm still dying for a space horror #MSWL

If you have space horror, please submit to my special invite link pinned on my profile. Must be set in space!

Halloween season is beginning. I’m getting into the mood. I’d love to see some scary, creepy, thrilling horror manuscripts in our submissions. #MSWL @serendipitylit

#mswl lol but also everyone go watch the terror

I've updated my #MSWL on my web site: aliherringwrites.wordpress.com. I might add some additional things here.

✨Adult MSWL✨

I would love to see horror or projects with series potential. Though my adult list is very full at the moment and is where I’m least looking to grow at the moment!

✨MG/YA MSWL✨

I would love to see work from Indigenous creatives especially in contemporary and speculative projects. Contemporary GNs. Mysteries and thrillers. And overall works that explore growing up whether that be its struggles or not.

✨PB MSWL✨

I love character-driven picture books with fun and special characters, nature and STEAM themes, and books that stem from the author’s childhood or love of their culture.

✨PB MSWL✨

✨Illustrator MSWL✨

I’m excited to see work from creatives who have a love for children’s books and have built a portfolio that focuses on children’s lit and the diversity of our kids. I’m also excited for contemporary and speculative GNs (pls no adult GNs)

✨2024 #MSWL ✨

I’ll be open widely to queries for the first time from Sept. 1st through the 7th!

I’m excited to continue building as diverse of a list as possible, and am especially looking for illustrators and author-illustrators.

A 🧵

I want something different in my queries. Something fresh, unique, with amazing storytelling and rounded characters. #MSWL

I’m honored to be featured in @WritersDigest Sept/Oct issue in their Agent Round up. I offer detailed insights into my wishlist, what I’m looking for & what I’m not interested in. It hits stands this week. Our submissions are open again! Name me in your sub #MSWL #WhatAgentsWant

I think I may need a fake boyfriend story when I reopen. YA or Adult #MSWL

Good grief. If you can write me a book that channels Glen Powell & Ryan Gosling that could be optioned for a movie I’d be all over that. #MSWL Has to be hooky & commercial with a strong plot & characters (obviously) lots of humor, swagger, action & showcases their personalities!! x.com/njhftdolans/st/njhftdolans/status/1828489144789565570

This is by no means an exhaustive list—if you think we'd be a fit, please query me!
