What I'm Not Looking For:

I'm not the best fit for any nonfiction, women's fiction, chapter books or picture books. Those are other Belcastro agents' wheelhouses but not mine! I'm also not the best person for stories with pro cop or military storylines. 11/?

My current #MSWL . I am in particular looking for YA Thrillers, Romance, Boarding School settings, and Graphic Novels. On the Adult side, I'd love to see more Popular Science and Narrative Nonfiction, as well as Romance, and Thrillers...but there is more! 😎

In ADULT and CHILDRENS Nonfiction:
- True Crime
- High-profile memoir
- Cookbooks

March 2024 #MSWL

And I'm always happy to see bighearted book club fiction, social horror, narrative nonfiction in the history and science categories, and YA! The best way to get to me is via Query Manager - I'm not currently accepting queries via e-mail unless specifically requested! (/end)

#amQuerying authors, we're looking for non-fiction books on #neurodivergence in adults by authors with a strong platform. No DMs. See submission guidelines here: rachellegardner.com/submissions #MSWL #WritingCommunity #nonfiction

Hi cuties! Who’s got a picture book text about the Amazon? Fiction or nonfiction, or a little bit of both—I’ve got a hankering! #MSWL

Hey nonfiction agents! I'm hungry for more projects. Looking for self-help, inspiration/motivation, social justice, creativity, platform-driven humor, and more. To see what I've been up to, click here: pinterest.com/beckerlj/books-ive-edited/

7) Another adult nonfiction I’d die to rep (pun intended) is anything about death. Alternative funerals, at home body care, an emphasis on choice. I’d love something by a #deathdoula or an anthology from #hospice nurses.

4) In the adult nonfiction space, I'm dying for books by LGBTQ+ evangelicals who are challenging the Christian space from within the faith and bringing new perspectives (Kate Bowler, Matthew Vines, Rachel Held Evans)

After a year at Creative Media Agency, I'm thrilled to open to #queries as an associate agent! I'm looking for:

- Women's fiction
- Romance
- Domestic suspense/thriller
- YA
- Narrative nonfiction & more!

I want to tap into #nonfiction and would love to see more journalists and scientists in my inbox 📑🔭 #mswl

I am a sucker for a good nostalgic moment. A deep dive on DCOMs, TV shows that made your after school hours worth while, accessories and fashion we don’t necessarily want back but still have a soft spot for. If you’re working on a nonfiction in this realm, let’s chat. #MSWL

In nonfiction, I want to be hooked by the idea of learning something new, discover a new angle on a topic I love, and find projects that are accessible to their audiences. Specifically, I'm craving women's and LGBTQ+ issues, gardening/sustainability, and food content #MSWL

Happy Monday! I am officially open to queries! I’m looking to fill my list with middle grade and adult fiction and select nonfiction. You can find the full MSWL here: manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/saritza-hernandez/

I'd love a self-help nonfiction book about looking past personal demons/traumas to find meaningful connection and learn to trust again--esp. for women. I'm love working with psychologists and am interested in the intersection of psychology & neuroscience (3/)

My colleagues at @AlcovePress have been publishing incredible witchy fiction; I'd love to get some commercial witchy nonfiction on my list. Think THE WITCH'S BOOK OF SELF-CARE or something more niche and for a general audience. (2/)

NONFICTION I’d love to see:

I’m hugely drawn to natural/unassisted childbirth, pregnancy, & motherhood. Informative & heartwarming. Ina May Gaskin is my hero! Highlighting how Big Pharma has medicalized birth (in the vein of The Business of Being Born).

I am remaining open for submissions this holiday season! Currently seeking Christian fiction of any type, clean YA, closed door/inspirational romance, and nonfiction. #YA #WritingCommunity #amquerying #amwriting #MSWL

#amquerying authors, I've reopened to adult nonfiction only - I'd love to see some more science/nature projects in my inbox! #MSWL QueryManager.com/2006
