Flowing into September, here's what I would LOVE to see in my inbox: HORROR!!!! It's spooky time folks, and horror is probably my favorite genre. Let's see if we can tick that genre way up, especially from POC & queer writers. Ghosts are my absolute favorite. #MSWL

My bookshelf is 50% character-driven sff/speculative/spooky, 50% realistic contemporary/historical (coming-of-age romance, mystery/thriller, action-adventure, and verse novels), mostly by BIPOC, queer, or traditionally underrepresented folks, & my taste very much reflects that.

Here’s what I’d love to find in my inbox:

A stellar suspense manuscript written by a POC.

The suspense shelf is full of white women, and while they are very talented, we definitely need to diversify this section of the bookstore.

ABOVE ALL, I am looking for #ownvoices stories and books from POC / marginalized creators. We need more diverse stories. Period. I will do anything and everything I can to make sure more people, especially children, are represented in published books. #MSWL

I'll be opening to queries June 1-30. I'm specifically looking for #MG and #YA written by #LGBTQIA + and/or #BIPOC authors. The only genre that I'm not looking for is fantasy.

Guys! I’ll be open to unsolicited queries soon, so it’s my turn to post my #MSWL! Thread below⬇️

Overall: I am looking to represent authors and illustrators for picture books and graphic novels (from MG through Adult). I am also looking to uplift and highlight BIPOC and other marginalized voices.

Agents, I'm keen to see more horror from POC and queer authors! Especially keen on any folk, possession or deep-sea horror from a non-Western perspective. #MSWL
