I have no idea what I’m doing and hate query letters

I am seeking representation for THE AURORA WITCH, 88,000 words, the story of three children discovering magic while staying with their estranged aunt inside a town of magical migrants threatened by a cursed witch. This middle grade fantasy will appeal to fans of the imaginative world of Greenwild: The World Behind the Door by Pari Thomson and the mystery-solving sibling dynamic of The Night Librarian by Christopher Lincoln. It will also appeal to adult readers who loved The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune.

Thirteen-year-old Millie has been taking care of her brothers ever since her mother’s death. All she wants is for the adults to stop treating her like a child—and keeping secrets. She and her brothers arrive at Whisper Hollow and learn that Aunt Edith is a Green Witch, one of the twelve types of color-bound witches. Her home is a magical sentient cottage that grows rooms like branches on a tree. Tragically, this means no WiFi. Millie and her brothers embark on a relentless quest for the truth regarding their magic and the Obsidian Witch threatening to return. Millie must choose the destiny that was hidden from her or risk losing the magical world forever.

I have an associate’s degree in nursing and have been a critical care RN for ten years. My most notable accomplishments include working in ICU during the pandemic and surviving a homeschool cult. Unfortunately, the latter is not satire.
