YA wants a coming of age element and thematic focus to its stories; this can be a little blurry with crossover these days, but ultimately I think there is a noticeable difference between horror that is adult but starring kids and horror that is for teens. #askDV

95k is a solid word count: room to grow if an agent wants you to develop/add, and clearly not so short that your story is missing worldbuilding etc. For me if you’re above 100k you have to earn it—the world has to be really epic and the scope of the story much broader. #askDV

If I recognize an author’s name I may sometimes look up an old query t satisfy my curiosity but the history makes no material difference in my consideration. #askDVo

If the story wraps up satisfyingly in Book 1 but could continue, saying “standalone with series potential” conveys that succinctly. While series are getting shorter many genres still thrive on series publishing and I wouldn’t consider it a problem if a manuscript I loved kicked off a series. #askDV

Agents may read one or the other first depending on their preference. The query and the pages serve different purposes, and one isn’t more important than the other. The query gives me a sense of the story engine and the plot skeleton. The pages give me a sense of voice. Both have to excite! #askDV

In a weird and unlikely twist of events, I have a real hankering for YA fantasy right now—lots of adult/crossover that leans adult on my docket for 2025, so I am hungry for more solidly YA-feeling books!

Could not be more thrilled! Ivy’s novel is one for the ages: a ghost story that feels utterly fresh and inventive, a haunting in more ways than one 🖤
