Send a Query to Miranda Paul at Aevitas Creative Management

View this agent's QueryTracker profile.
Miranda Paul is open to queries from illustrators and author-illustrators always—no referral needed for artists. For authors, I am open by referral or if you've seen me speak at a specific event (please name that event or referral source). I am open to queries for projects from or board book through young adult, fiction or nonfiction, and the select adult project (nonfiction prioritized with regard to adult books). I prioritize queries from any/all creators who identify with an underrepresented group/background/identity within children's literature through YA—also no referral needed. Illustrators should send a prepared dummy and a robust online portfolio geared to illustration of children's/teen books. **If you have accessibility needs and prefer to email your query directly to me ore request accommodations, you are welcome to do so. Please visit aevitascreative.com to learn more about how to contact me. I vastly prefer you submit your project through this site.

Please only query one Aevitas (ACM) agent at a time. If your project is being considered by another agent at the agency, it's a no from me. I unfortunately can no longer respond to all queries, though I try. If you haven't heard back in four months, feel free to nudge or consider it a pass. Thank you to all creators for understanding my limitations. I look forward to reading and considering your work.
