✨To all the picture book authors of the world✨
I have been closed to unsolicited picture book subs for a while, but now, I feel really good about bringing on a few authors.
I’ll be open to picture book subs for a small window August 10-Sept 1 only
My dream PB #mswl below:

In my recent addiction to food-focused travel TV, I've learned a bit about Queen of Creole Cuisine Leah Chase and how she literally fed the '60s civil rights movement and wow what a queen indeed. Could be an awesome PB bio subject...👀 #MSWL

I'm open for queries and updated my website with a new #MSWL, focusing on author-illo board books and chapter books; picture books and middle grade (fiction and non-fiction):

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.

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
Literary Agent
I should note here - I would LOVE to see more PB queries from authors whose experiences are underrepresented in publishing. That's permanently on my #MSWL!

Very happy to emcee this amazing event!!! Some of Detroit’s best dressed men competed in the Times Square competition on the Avenue Of Fashion. All were winners!!!@FOX2News @WWJ950 #detroit #fashion pic.twitter.com/ouEQVmIiEfWow, I’d love a picture book MS about something like this from a Black author — celebrating the history and present of Black men’s style. So sharp! #MSWL

One of my favorite things about Jesus is how much he loved to celebrate.Not only did he regularly meet folks at the table, but he was entirely indiscriminate in those he partied with. I imagine this is one of the things that made folks curious- made so many want to follow him.
This would be a GREAT base for a picture book! Authors, agents... 👀 #mswl

Good morning, #amquerying #amwriting community!PitMad may be over. There were almost half a million pitches, which is an overwhelming turnout! Because of that, I know I 💯 missed some things.
Query me anyways!

I'm particularly eager to build up my MG and Adult lists, but I can't resist a good PB or YA.
I'm perennially on the lookout for BIPOC, LGBT, and Neurodiverse creators in all categories.

Pitbulls are perfect.Come to think of it, if someone wants to write me an ode-to-pitbulls picture book called "Pitbulls Are Perfect," wherein (for example) a child explains to the viewer why pitties are, in fact, perfect...Well I'd be mighty happy to see that in my inbox from your agent. #mswl
