#MSWL - Music Magic! Open to any form (#MG or #YA , this world or fantasy), I just need to see music magic in my inbox… I want to see characters playing instruments to channel & utilise their powers - magic pouring out of pianos, etc, people entranced by melodies…
NEED.

I represent these genres but I am also not limited to these genres: Historical, Literary, Women’s Fiction, Southern Fiction, Sci-fi, Fantasy, YA, Adventure, Speculative, Inspirational, Thriller. brandyvallance.com / barbarabovaliteraryagency.com #mswl #amquerying

I’m going to really dive back into my queries soon & would love to see more big epic fantasy, adult or YA. I’m talking complex, court intrigue, not romance-forward—I am watching House of the Dragon and reading James Islington, and craving something that scratches that itch #mswl

i read 13 graphic novels in 4 days, and i really want to rep more author-illustrators. so, here’s an mswl:
#mswl #kidlitart

🧺 mg camp
🧸 mg contemp with series potential (sunny side up esque)
🎻 ya queer + funny romance
🪈 uncommon family dynamics
📦 modern day ghosts + witches

my inbox is clearing up & this summer i’m looking for:

🪼 mg/ya queer sports
🐠 ya/adult tragic queer romances
🐳 mg marginalized contemporary (think front desk)
🐋 mg/ya/adult indigenous authors
+ any of the above in graphic novel form

[ #amquerying #mswl ]

Send me your YA!!! I’m keen to find fantasy or a thriller! #mswl

yes, please watch this epic show. and also, hellooooo, #mswl — would *love* to edit a YA about an all-girl Muslim punk band ✨manifests this into my inbox✨

I am so excited to be opening to queries again! I will be open beginning tomorrow, June 3-June 10. #amquerying #writers , my #MSWL remains much the same but this month I am especially on the hunt for #YA and #mg genre fiction from diverse perspectives.

young adult — cult stories, bittersweet depictions of being a teen, and self sacrifice

#kidlit #mswl

Friends, it's been a long time coming, but I can FINALLY announce that my MSWL is live and I'm officially open to queries.
manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jessica-berg/

Also for teen/YA - all your thrillers, murder mysteries, horrors. Please send your heists and spies. Ally Carter is an auto-buy, and my new fave is Ravena Guron.

YA romance/romcoms - if I had to pick just one thing, this is definitely the asylum where they raised me. Some faves: Michelle Quach, Ann Liang, Eva desLauriers, Emma Lord, Huntley Fitzpatrick, Emma Mills, Sophie Gonzales, William Hussey, Stephanie Perkins - you get the idea

WRITERS: I will be closing to queries on June 8th-so that I can catch up on submissions and focus on client manuscripts. As a reminder, I'm looking for YA/MG/PB and Adult and Kids NF. Polish and send those queries by 6/8 or hang on to them until later in the summer. Thanks!

I am going to open again to queries next Monday. I would really like to see a romance (either YA or mainstream adult) that will sweep me away, a character I will fall in love with in chapter 1, and to add more diversity to my list overall. #mswl QueryManager.com/1621

I am so excited to announce that I am now at Spencerhill Associates! AND I am now open to queries! Head to the Spencerhill website to see what I'm looking for and get your queries in my QueryManager! So excited for this new adventure.

I would love to see this #mswl

Does anyone have recommendations for a cozy fantasy mystery? Also very open to agented YA submissions in that genre!

#MSWL Remember those YA romantic dystopian books from 10-15 years ago? LEGEND, SHATTER ME - I even count HUNGER GAMES here. I'd LOVE to see some new, fresh romantic dystopian!

(No plague-based books or books where the world is dystopian because it's misogynist, though, please.)

#MSWL I’m also always on the look out for:
✨genre mixing projects!
✨gap area projects!

These are books that do fun things w/genre boundaries and/or hit "gap" areas of the market: voice-y lower MG, adventurous (or romantic) upper MG/lower YA, upper YA & New Adult.

#MSWL I’d love some fun, voice-y school dramas both MG and YA. Kids scheming things, kids getting away with things, kids having adventures on fieldtrips gone awry!

And I'm happy to look at projects with unusual formats like The Tapper Twins series.
