Im Gabriella Melendez and I’m an assistant agent at greatdoglit.bsky.social . I represent genre fiction YA, NA, into adult (usually characters from 16-30). I’m especially interested in Fantasy, Cont. Romance and anything with Latinx representation! #mswl

I'm currently closed to queries and won't be fully participating in #mswl Day, but when I reopen I'll be on the lookout for:
- YA romcoms with depth and shenanigans
- heist novels
- literary horror
- author/illustrators working on picture books and graphic novels

Happy #MSWL BlueSky! I would love to connect on romance: romcoms, paranormal, suspense, something new but different; cozies; young adult and self-help that makes me think in a new way. Excited to see what's out here!

Happy #MSWL day!

some specific shoutouts:
- voice! voice! voice! anything voice-driven with some kind of social lens (YA/adult)
- a literary love story a la PAST LIVES (A24) and FIRST LOVE (Netflix)

my general wishlist remains the same so please do check it out!

Happy #MSWL day! I’m currently closed to queries BUT when I reopen on March 1st I would love to see-

•More YA stories
-I’m hungry for murderous cheerleaders- think I Know What You Did Last Summer x Bring It On

-I’m also in my lover girl era so give me those Jenny Han vibes

Hey it's #MSWL Day! Great to have manuscriptwishlist.bsky.social here. What I'm looking for:

-YA thriller/low fantasy blends; think RIPLEY meets TUCK EVERLASTING.
-YA historical procedural. I want a teen ALIENIST.
-MG dark fantasy GNs. An 11 year old exorcist? Sure!
-Weird! Weird everything!

MG or YA Coming of Age Graphic Novel. Draw me a world with realistic, flawed, lovable, funny characters following their dreams. The next “Malcolm Kid and the Perfect Song.” Sub link in profile #MSWL #GraphicNovel #KidLit

Happy #MSWL day! I’m not currently open to submissions, but you can always find my wish lists for MG and YA here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/me...

Hi #querying #booksky authors! I’m a literary agent always looking to fall in love with new manuscripts. Here is my current #MSWL : www.btaylorbooks.com/mswl

Oh, and I should note I’ll be re-opening to queries on March 1, so please do keep me in mind as you prepare your query lists for pb, mg, ya, and everything in between (as long as it’s for children). Once I reopen, my query guidelines will be live at QueryTracker.net/query/michel... #MSWL

#MSWL I only represent children’s books, but I work with everything from board books through YA, both fiction and nonfiction. In board and picture books I prefer seeing submissions from author-illustrators.

Highlighting some #mswl in either YA, NA or adult: horror of any variety. Looking for really unique (new twists) romantasy, fantasy from soft to epic. Also where are my sci-fi space opera writers? 🤣 In addition to my other tweets on what I want.

#WritingCommunity #amquerying

Hi #amquerying friends
While I am open to all speculative fiction, I'm really looking to add more ya & mg horror/thriller/mystery authors to the list 🕷 #MSWL

In YA: don't be afraid to push boundries. I'm NOT a good fit for clean fiction (If you see former MSWLs from 2015-2020 where I did request this it was due to my former agency's requirements). I'm drawn to bold, boundry pushing topics that teens can relate to.

Voice/Opening pages: For MG/YA--I prefer strong voices, and authentic voices, opening pages where I feel grounded in the world quickly, and a clear sense of character and stakes. (I'll elaborate more below).

I love all types and age ranges of horror, but I don’t get a lot of these submissions in YA! I’d love to see more of them.

And for some updated things I’m looking for, alongside the above:

High concept and YA/Adult mysteries/thrillers, like THE BLONDE DIES FIRST and THE LAST MURDER AT THE END OF THE WORLD.

Patrick Ness's THE REST OF US JUST LIVE HERE meets THE HUNGER GAMES or THE GRACE YEAR.

Basically hypernormalisation against a dystopian setting. #MSWL #YA

-Dystopian in Adult and YA. This seems to be coming back! I prefer ones with action and social commentary, think Hunger Games. #MSWL
