A purple background with a yellow bee in the top right hand corner and hive in the bottom right. In white text it reads: Welcome to my newest author Kai! I am incredibly excited to be working with them on their fantasy horror, that is very D&D mixed with Half Life (yes for real)! I loved getting to read this book start to finish and felt like I was going through a dungeon crawl with new horrors around every corner and I wasn’t as sneaky a rogue as I wanted to be. I am so incredibly honored to be working on this book with Kai and so many future projects! Welcome to the crew Kai! - Morgan

Very excited and honored to announce my newest author @kadoore.com!! I am in love with their weird fantasy horror that made me feel like I was trapped in a terrifying dungeon trying to creep my way out! I cannot wait to work with Kai on this project and many more!!

Early this year, I illustrated a picture book centered on the Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) approach to learning. It was fun and an insightful project! ❤️ Available on : a.co/d/08A7FdmW

thebookseller ig account saying NEWS: some editors uploading confidential manuscripts to ChatGPT to read quickly, agent claims

the guardian: I wrote a novel using AI. Writers must accept artificial intelligence – but we are as valuable as ever | Stephen Marche

the walrus bsky account: Authors are using AI. Publishers know it. And now, says publishing consultant Thad McIlroy, authors are being forced to lie about it. One cancelled horror novel didn’t just end a career—it exposed an industry-wide reckoning.

idk guys when i see a lot of similar headlines insisting that editors & authors are all already embracing AI, i don't assume these things are true. i assume there are a lot of very rich people with an unpopular product pushing a particular narrative in my industry!

It’s Trans Day of Visibility!

Buying a book by a trans author is great, but don’t stop there! Make sure to call your representatives. Support your local trans communities. Donate to mutual aid organizations.

If we’re going to make it through this we need you to do more than post on social media!

It's just as simple as that. Even now, calling it "Universal Healthcare" or "Medicare for All" means that Black and Brown people would also get it, and they can't have THAT, even if they want it themselves.

Light pink, white, and blue graphic titled “Educator Giveaway - Win 1 of 3 Trans Book Bundles!” Beneath the title is a diagonal flatlay of several mock-up book covers. Some of the titles shown are “Obie is Man Enough” “A World Worth Saving”, “One of the Boys”, and “This Wretched Beauty”.

WNDB firmly stands against the nationwide book banning bill H.R. 7661.

Trans+ books and creators need our support now more than ever, which is why we’re hosting an educator giveaway to provide curated trans+ book bundles for students who need them most.

Happy birthday dad, I miss you. 💜

Alright blood moon, let’s manifest some good book news. Agent signings, deals, bestseller lists, and not like, all the ways you keep f*cking with Link in the Zelda games. We need a break.

What the FUCK is going on and why is everyone with a soul not calling for a war crimes tribunal. Fuck impeachment, this is solidly Hague territory

We’re doing a query drive to raise money to help relieve acute food insecurity among families sheltering in place. Come through!

I will definitely announce it! And honestly that sounds like an awesome book!!

Oh my gosh! How have we not connected yet?! 👀

Just some reminders:

I open the first week of the month every month except November and December.

I respond to every query that comes through QueryManager.

Every partial and full I request will get personalized feedback.

And I'm always happy to answer questions 😊

Another sort of specific ask, and this could be to any genre I'm open to, is a YA based around a swimming or water polo team! I used to coach swim and would love to have something that brings me back poolside! #mswl

In YA specifically, I'm really looking for a good mystery! Give me a modern day and diverse Scooby doo crew. Happens at a summer camp? Yes please. #mswl

On the complete opposite end, I've been craving a cozy sci fi romance! Especially if it has food involved and even more say if it's queer! This could be adult or YA! #mswl

Something specific I've been looking for is an adult or YA sci fi horror. I want to be terrified in space! Make me scared of the black empty void and what may stare back in the far reaches. #mswl

Okay! I am back after a busy morning at day job. First thing for #mswl day is my most up to date wishlist found on the Manuscript Wish List website!

This is the best place to start to see what I'm open to! It is also where I talk about my anti-mswl, genres I don't rep and my fave books/shows.

Hi! I am currently closed to queries. I open the first week of every month except for November and December, so I will be open again on Sunday. However, I do not represent any non fiction works at this time.

Hi Melissa! Novellas are something I'd like to work with in the future, but right now I'm just not sure I have the right connections for them!

Hi Christina! I am open the first week of the month every month except for November and December, so my QM form will be opening up on Sunday!

I'll be posting some #MSWL stuff later today (as I wake up with more coffee) but an evergreen reminder is that if I'm open to your genre then always feel free to send it my way. I LOVE being surprised by things I didn't know I wanted or loved in my inbox 😊

On sub soon!! I am so excited to get these space cadets out in the world, I adore them all so much. If they stole my heart, they can steal yours too! 💜

I've said this before but I truly believe we could revitalize YA and kidlit overnight by switching to MMPB and paperback first. Kids want paperbacks! It is by far the biggest request I get from teen readers.
