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

Attn: writers seeking agents! My queries are open! Find out more about my updated #MSWL and how to query me here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/kristin-ostby/ #amquerying

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.

#MSWL Self-Help/Pop psychology nonfiction geared towards mental health and wellness for young Millennial/Gen Z. A BIPOC and/or LGBTQ+ focus is a plus.

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.

#mswl Give me #aapi and #bipoc pirates upending empires and living their best life. Goth pirates are a vibe as well💀🏴‍☠️

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

Bipoc writers putting your Bipoc fae characters in this dress #mswl

More points for making it gay 😉

Firstly, I know Querytracker says I'm closed but I am open! Just not quite open to absolutely everyone. Please query me (querymanager.com/AllegraMartsch…) if you are:
—A BIPOC spec fic writer
—A marginalized writer w/one of my dream projects (see my website)

2/3

#MSWL LGBTQ+ non trauma centered YA & Adult fiction. A romcom would be fun, I’m always looking for masculine presenting lesbians. BIPOC stories always a plus.

If you have something that fits this specifically DM me.
