Future #MSWL & QM update:
I have less than 40 undecided queries/submissions. I plan to reopen mid-late January to a few genres. This info is not on my website or MSWL page yet— it’s just a head’s up and I hope it’s helpful!

✨ ADULT FICTION✨
• contemporary romance - think Emily Henry but low spice or Melissa Ferguson
• upmarket / book club
• cozy mysteries

✨ NONFICTION✨
- same as what’s on website -

✨ KIDLIT ✨
• PB/MG/YA - classic-style with a literary bent. Secret Garden. Bridge to Terabithia. Winnie-the-Pooh.
• PB - humorous character-driven series

‼️Not looking for SEL or rhyme.‼️

I’m feeling really great about where I’m at with my QM, so I decided to reopen just for a tiny bit before summer. I’ll post a more detailed #MSWL later today but I’ve reopened to Adult, which I haven’t done for a while, and I’m still extremely interested in MG.

(My website still says closed but I’m driving all day and can’t change it until later. QM genres are open.)

#MSWL: MG writers! 📣

I’ve reopened QM to middle grade only, all genres except sci-fi.

My PM, MSWL, & website say “no horror,” but I’m now accepting MG horror because it’s the only level of horror I can handle. 😂

I’m planning to reopen to other genres in April. 🌷

#PBPitch & #MSWL on the same day makes me wish I could nestle here on Twitter and do nothing else!

I’m updating my MSWL page for when I reopen, but my biggest change is that I’m dropping adult fiction.

Brief list (will expound later)
💫Adult NF - CBA & ABA
💫PB, MG, YA - ABA

Closing submissions inbox on Friday.

#MSWL - cozy mysteries, YA or MG retellings, NF (see QM or PM for list), PB (can be author-only)

I’ve reopened to queries but my response time might be longer than normal. #MSWL:

💞YA/MG: Retellings
💕A: Cozies
💞Cookbooks/Food & Beverage
💕NF: Home & Lifestyle

Unfortunately, being sick for so long has put me pretty behind so I thank you in advance for your patience. ❤️

#MSWL I’m reopening to queries in Dec. & am acquiring everything listed on my website, but would really like to see:
💞YA/MG: Retellings
💕A: Cozies
💞Cookbooks/Food & Beverage
💕NF: Home & Lifestyle

I’m open to queries again and just found out my page is live on Manuscript Wish List!!!! 🎉🎉🎉

One update: I’m looking for the first 50 pgs, not 10, for fiction. 🤗 #mswl
