✨In the generes I rep, I'd love to see more projects by writers from Black, Indigenous, Latine/x, Asian, AAPI, Middle Eastern, and African communities and their far-reaching diasporas, as well as the LGBTQIA+, trans and nonbinary, and disabled and neurodiverse communities. #MSWL ✨Aro-ace rep and meaningful platonic relationships
✨Sci-fi, fantasy, and horror with non-western settings and cultures
✨Anti-colonialist, -caste, -patriarchy, -establishment, etc. with driving plots and strong characters

Let's have some fun and talk about comp titles. This relates to part of what we do as agents, too. It's about knowing the current market and knowing where your work fits into it. So I'm going to dive right in, but I'll finish this thread with the comps for my clients' projects.🧵 FYI: This is going to be geared mostly towards newer writers or writers new to querying. But I hope there will be something here for everyone. And I can't speak for all agents, of course, so this is just from my own perspective. Anyway, let's go. 🧵
