For me, it's all about voice. Sometimes it's the project that I least expect that pulls me in. If in doubt (and if it is something that I represent😀), query! #MSWL #MG #YA #Adult

For #YA send me all your charming rom-coms, your heartfelt exploration of sibling dynamics, thrillers that will keep me up at night turning the pages, and all the southern gothic you can handle. Oh & anything with hints of magic. I LOVE contemporary fantasy & light fantasy #MSWL

For #MG I would love a sweeping fun adventure, contemporary that deals with the growing pains of middle school in a sweet way, or something that is atmospheric w/ just a hint of magic (to name a few!) #MSWL

For #adult, I’m particularly hungry for commercial #WF. Give me a strong hook & upmarket writing. I’m open to MANY different genres here, but my sweet spot are stories that deal with family and/or long held secrets #MSWL

I’m ALWAYS looking for underrepresented voices and stories told through new or unique lenses #MSWL #YA #MG #Adult

I’m OFFICIALLY open to queries again!! PLEASE fill up my inbox. I’m actively taking on new clients & can’t wait to see your project! I represent #MG, #YA and #Adult and you can query me here: querymanager.com/query/Kristy_H… #MSWL #querytip

i would LOVE to see stories about immigrant communities - especially ones with a multi-generational family angle in the vein of mitali perkins' YOU BRING THE DISTANT NEAR #mswl

i also need more contemporary fantasy that draws from diverse folklore! anything in the vein of daniel josé older's SHADOWSHAPER or kat cho's WICKED FOX #mswl

i'm desperate for commercial, soap-y, contemporary YA that is both highly aspirational and has high emotional stakes. think anything from casey mcquiston's RED WHITE AND ROYAL BLUE to jennifer lynn barnes' THE FIXER #mswl

DIVERSE LOVE STORIES, DIVERSE ROM COMS, DIVERSE ROM DRAMS! 💕💕💕 please send me anything in the vein of jenny han's TATBLIB, sandhya menon's WHEN DIMPLE MET RISHI, maurene goo's THE WAY YOU MAKE ME FEEL, and gloria chao's AMERICAN PANDA #mswl

in general, would love more contemporary YA that takes place outside the U.S. #mswl

i am forever looking for YA written by korean/korean american authors that feature korean/korean american characters - especially contemporary stories that take place in korea 🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷 #mswl

“I’d love to read some vibrant, Broadway/West End musical fiction. Give me glamour and behind-the-scenes action. Interesting, dramatic, but contemporary and upmarket.” @readbystephanie #MSWL psliterary.com/submissions/
