In YA I want rich world building with strong and clear magic system and am open to romance as central part of the plot. I love retellings of classic stories, realistic fiction with mystery, thriller, heist/spies and untrustworthy characters

First, I’m excited to be representing young adult and adult fiction and am especially interested in books with crossover potential in the new adult range

I would love a YA that explores toxic fandom!! #mswl

Very excited to announce that I will be opening my Query Manager officially next week! A link to my MSWL is in my bio, but I will also be sharing a thread of some of the things I'm looking for here. Can't wait to start reading

I am officially open to queries again! 🎉 Looking forward to seeing all of your amazing MG and YA submissions in my inbox 🤗 Check out my MSWL to see what I'm looking for!

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

Thank you and welcome to all the new follows I’ve gotten since posting my new Manuscript Wishlist profile! If you don’t know me yet, I’m a YA and MG agent and former Big 5 editor. Very gay, very liberal, very geeky. Actively growing my list. My query link is in my bio. 😊

Young Adult: I'm going to be a bit more picky when it comes to YA as this is where most of my current clients write. But I'm really going to be looking for Rom-Coms (with an emphasis on the comedy)! Think She's the Man!

My agent profile is finally up at MSWL! Check me out at:

I want a YA Sweetbitter — intense coming-of-age set in the very messy restaurant world. #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.

"Send me YA nonfiction: memoir, essay collections, you name it. QUEER, THERE, AND EVERYWHERE is probably my favorite YA nonfiction title in recent memory, and a great example of what I'd like to see."

Dreaming of a witchy horror comedy YA novel with a killer ensemble... #mswl

Spent my weekend at an air show and had so much fun! #mswl MG/YA/Adult Romance that features planes, pilots, airports, or an air show!
