Hey Rebecca! Sorry to be random, but I was trying to check out your submission guidelines and my anti-virus isn't letting me onto your agency website. I'm not sure if it needs a browser update or if my laptop is just being rude.

Reesa Guerra @reesaguerra.bsky.social · 11/10/2026

Good to know! I had one at 62k, but I trimmed it to 54k. My other middle-grade fantasy is 50k.

My mom went on and on about a novel she read a long time ago. As she explains the plot, I realize it was a screenplay I wrote forever ago!! I might turn this into a novel someday. There's a time for everything. 😁 📚 #writingcommunity #writers

🍅 The lasagna test is something I came up with randomly when I thought "lasagna" would be a funny word to get a bot to say 🍅 Turns out asking a sus reply about lasagna is a shockingly elegant way to illustrate the way a bot can't talk normally Thread of collected lasagna tests: (please send more)

This is beyond hilarious! Whenever I post about a novel I'm reading, they'll be like: What do you think inspired the author to write this novel? If it's about querying: Which novel do you think agents will want more? 🤪🤺🤺

Hahn is the master of creeping horror for the middle grade set. First encountered at age 8, still delightfully chilling nearly 4 decades later.

Creepy book cover of Wait Till Helen comes by Mary Downing Hahn featuring a ghostly image of a little girl in a white dress standing among gravestones and overgrown weeds.

History Meets Faerie Tales: Katherine Arden – The Unicorn Hunters

I fell in love with Katherine Arden's writing when I read The Bear and the Nightingale (and then the other two novels in the trilogy) and, quite without making an effort, have read everthing she has published since. Including her Middle Grade horror novels (they are great) and a picture book. Arden has returned to historical fantasy with this book, and added unicorns.

Love the wildly creative YA fantasy, light-horror, novel-in-verse, UNDER A CARNIVORE SKY. Author @briannajett.bsky.social weaves lyrical poetry into a fast paced plot with haunting world building and surprisingly deep themes. Studying this one repeatedly for craft on line level. #kidlit #bookreview

Last but not least, MG horror and/or comedy, because what’s more horrifying or hilarious than growing up? Illustrated funny MG like Captain Underpants, Dog Man, Last Kids on Earth, Many Misfortunes of Eugenia Wang. Layered spooky MG like Small Spaces, Bellwoods Game, Remember Me Daphne. 4/4
