My Query Manager page should show that I'm closed as I catch up on queries received in December and that I plan to open again in February once I'm caught up - I believe you can sign up for alerts too! If you're curious about how I manage queries though, check out my December substack post!

I only accept queries via query manager! querymanager.com/queryjessica...
See the JLLA website, my personal website, or the link in my bio for tips and instructions *as well at the text at the top of my Query Manager pages* as I will only be open to specific genres at some times! #querying

I'm open to queries and I'm most looking for:
⭐speculative literary & upmarket fiction
⭐light horror
⭐very personal feeling women's fiction
⭐narrative nonfiction that peels back the curtain on something truly cool and uses both a personal connection and criticism to show why we should pay attention
