PB:
-The ocean (I love dolphins & beluga whales!)
-Climate change, recycling, etc.
-The outdoors (e.g. camping/hiking)
-Sharing experiences of kids from nonwhite/non-Western cultures and backgrounds
-Tackling serious topics like grief for young readers

PB: I'm looking for PB much more sparingly than before, as my list is very full in this area. I'm not looking for rhyming PB.
Chapter books/early readers: Not looking for new authors here, I already have amazing clients writing these!
Literary Agent
Yep, open to queries!
On my #MSWL: adult SFF, MG (particularly fantasy), YA (also particularly fantasy, but I love contemporary too), and PB. I'm looking for exciting new projects and dynamic voices. Surprise the heck outta me.

Last night I procrastinated so much on Actual Things (cleaning? life? etc) that I made myself a website 👀 taragonzalez.com

I just did a MASSIVE update to my #MSWL page to hopefully clear up some questions about what I'm looking for. Authors, if your book seems like a good fit, let's chat!

Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates
"they" will not become a part of general usage, not for political reasons but because there would be no pronoun to distinguish between a singular subject ("they") & a plural subject ("they"). language seeks to communicate w/ clarity, not to obfuscate; that is its purpose. twitter.com/JoyceCarolOate…Hi! I’m looking for more picture books, novels, and graphic novels that feature non-binary characters, people who use they/them pronouns, etc.! Shouldn’t be a problem, since kids easily get the fact that language is mutable ❤️ #MSWL

- Something “earthy”—be that a lyrical picture book about environmentalism or a MG hiking action-adventure or a darkly atmospheric YA that takes place in a forest or anything in between
- MG and YA with rural settings
- Witches, boarding schools, sister bonds

I’m in the mood for a cozy picture book with a fresh take on the Fall season. Sweaters, apple picking, cider donuts, crisp bonfire nights, corn mazes, colorful leaves—I want all the seasonal vibes! (Agented submissions only please) #MSWL #PB #picturebooks

Since I’m now back open to queries, I’d love to share a bit more about what types of projects I’m currently looking for. Buckle up for a #MSWL thread. 💜PICTURE BOOKS
In the PB space, I have 3 top priorities:
1. Stories by BIPOC creators in general, particularly family narratives. I love falling in love with a new fictional family!
2. Humor! I need a good laugh. Kids do, too.
3. MAGIC! Send me magical stories!!! ✨

PB, MG, A Fic and NF
Immersive worlds, radiant voices from the first line, things that are familiar but have their own unique twist, and always with relatable but currently relevant themes. Laughter is great but I'm not the best fit for comedy.

In more HOPEFUL HAPPY news: super EXCITED to share the gorgeous covers of my authors’ picture books publishing this fall and spring! #books #mswl #NFT #literaryagent #PictureBooks #bookclub
