"Book club fiction focused on family dynamics, friendship, and other communities."

Apparently I never Manuscript Wishlisted my love of messy immortals in SFF+horror? #mswl me your characters who live for centuries alongside their friends, enemies, exes and polycules and all of those things at once because across the many years the only constant there has been is each other

My adult #MSWL is similar to my kidlit wants! I’m very interested in non-memoir non fiction (though I’m always open to a good memoir), uplifting literary fiction, and fun genre fiction that pushes boundaries and/or offers something innovative. See previous post about what I DON’T want. Open on 6/1.

I represent #kidlit of all kinds, but what I’m most interested in receiving in my inbox when we are #opentoqueries on 6/1 is: uplifting contemporary YA, non-fiction for all age groups written in compelling prose, projects from author/illustrators, and novels-in-verse! #MSWL

"I'm seeking nonfiction books with a deep dive into uncommon or unconventional industries, jobs, or programs."

Just a random #MSWL item - if you have
a romance that can be comped to Taylor Swift’s I Can See You *music video* then I NEED to see it.

"Nonfiction proposals with an intersectional feminist angle immediately catch my attention. A few issues I'd like to see examined: occupational segregation, equal pay, and emotional labor."

My #MSWL categories as we open for queries on 6/1: I’m happy to read both fiction and non-fiction for children and adults in all genres except: erotica, true crime, political non-fiction, very grisly horror, and AI generated works. #amagenting

#mswl reminder: I am still on the hunt for standout trans/genderqueer voices, particularly in YA but also MG, from speculative to gorgeously written coming-of-age. My partner is trans/nb, I’m genderfluid, and I will never stop championing genderqueer authors

"I want Gothic horror, space horror, folk horror, psychological horror, supernatural horror, slasher horror – scare me!"
Rose Ferrao #MSWL

I'm not open to queries and don't have a date (though I see a glimmer of light in the tunnel) but I want a really good, really florida, cryptid book so bad. I'm talking Ocala national forest, non-tourist everglades, lake okeechobee, etc born & raised writing the weirdest my state has to offer #mswl

High concept picture books #MSWL

"Send me upmarket genre fiction: fantasy, grounded science fiction, magical realism, and horror."
mariavicente.com #MSWL

This might be an exception, but I’d be open to a cozy/or high tension contemporary romance that specifically has themes of nature, eco-centric premise, & lovely prose. Give me women in STEAM; Marine Biologists, conservationists, archeologists, park rangers, etc. #MSWL

"Send me any books fitting of Taylor Swift's Reputation era. I love books about female rage and would love to see the 'unhinged woman' narrative with BIPOC characters."
Nour Sallam #MSWL

Heist or mystery/thriller but make it picture book #MSWL
