    (There's a typo in the winners--Hallowstone is #30, not #37.)

  6. Does this agent accept YA ASWELL as bio say yes but MA subs said no?? Confused!

  7. Anon, I'm not Authoress, but I know agents don't always want to see all the categories/genres they usually consider in these contests. In this case, she probably wanted to focus on adult submissions (but you could still send her a cold query now, of course!).

  8. Thank you, Krista! :)

    Anon, Ms. Udden does not have YA listed on her official "agent page" on the agency web site. However, she is now clearly looking for it, so since she posted that information here, it is perfectly acceptable to query her with your YA manuscript.
