Thank you, Amanda!! ❤️❤️

I have something that fits this! 💕 I will let my agent know. My comps are Studio Ghibli meets Anne of Green Gables, but a recent editor has described it as “If Gilmore Girls had magic.” Thank you for sharing your MSWL!

And yes, 40k is good. I had a 60k MG fantasy go on subs and last summer an editor said it was too long.

I have a subscription to publishers marketplace, and there are so many GN getting published now and not many novels. No hate on GN, but for novel MG writers, it’s depressing.

Mine is around 35k. It originally was longer. I do still see some longer books being acquired. It’s just more recently that I have heard the desire for lower word count. I feel like everything is arbitrary in this industry.

Thank you 🥹❤️
