Hi! Welcome to my Query Manager. I'm looking forward to reading your work.

Please double check to make sure I'm open to your genre at this time. If the genre is not available, it's likely that I'm closed to those types of projects right now. I limit these so that I'm able to respond to queries quickly. I will delete any queries that come in while I'm closed to those genres.

As of December 1, 2024 I am open to nonfiction and Adult Fiction but specifically:
Fiction:
Literary and upmarket speculative fiction or fiction that balances on the edge of genre, blends genres, or gets weird.
Commercial or Upmarket women’s fiction that plays with traditional tropes.
And some selective science fiction/fantasy, Romantasy, and horror.
I'm always looking for work with an emphasis on LGBTQIA+ characters and underrepresented POVs.

Nonfiction:
Pop culture nonfiction, prescriptive self-help from experts, and narrative nonfiction about psychology, culture, science, or history that adds vital context to contemporary life.

Please make sure your query letter includes comparative titles and your bio!

A reminder that at this time I am not looking to represent romance/erotica, thrillers, true crime, memoirs, cookbooks, graphic novels, poetry, short story collections, or Childrens or Middle Grade books unless I have requested materials from you.

For more information on what I'm looking for please visit https://www.manuscriptwishlist.com/mswl-post/jessica-felleman/ or follow me on Instagram, Bsky, TikTok or Twitter @jmfelleman.

You are always free to query me again in the future if you revise or are querying with a new project and I am open to your genre of work.
