firstwriter.com – Tuesday February 27, 2024
Primarily looking for upmarket fiction, literary fiction, and narrative nonfiction narrow and deep in scope that might play with unreliable narrators, interrogations of power and violence, reclamations of identity, or dark-as-night humor. Fresh takes on horror, magical realism, camp, and kitsch will always be met with zeal. In the children’s space, she is looking for contemporary middle-grade and YA stories that are fun, engaging, and seemingly “quiet” that crack open larger questions or underrepresented experiences. As part of their brilliant storytelling, they respect young readers and approach tough topics with warmth, humor, and edge. She is not accepting queries in science fiction, fantasy, or picture books at this time.
New Literary Agency Listing: Frog Literary Agency
firstwriter.com – Wednesday February 21, 2024
LGBTQIA+ writers only. No submissions from heterosexuals. Writing need not have a queer focus, so heterosexual content may be accepted if it is written by someone who says they are gay. However, the same content would be rejected if the person who wrote it says they are straight. Also offers editorial services to writers, which may be considered a conflict of interest. Always exercise caution when contacting agencies that offer paid-for services that claim to improve your chances of being accepted by agencies, as the agency may merely be a front for generating business for the editorial service.
