This is a big #mswl for me. I REALLY want to read a Young Adult Jewish Bridgerton-type romance (I'd write it myself, if I thought I could! I've tried...). If you have something like that, DM me and I'll tell you how to submit it (because I'm currently closed to queries).

“People want books about a better world.” #Hopepunk #mswl publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/ne…

This here, please! If you have this, and want to send it my way, but I’m closed to queries, DM me and I’ll tell you how to send it! #mswl

I'm open to submissions for the month of May! Send me #PictureBooks, #chapterbooks, #middlegrade & #youngadult novels. Please look at my #MSWL threads so you can query smartly. All queries go to: QueryTracker.com/LindaEpstein

Oh! #mswl if it’s YA!

I like funny but I like substance. There needs to be a big hook and layers, multiple ways in to what makes it something that will stand out in an overcrowded picture book market. #picturebooks #MSWL

I LOVE retellings of stories but not so keen on a classic or fairy tale or Shakespeare or Bible story or whatever being retold in a contemporary setting. I know that's a thing. It's just not MY thing. #MSWL

IF you send me a Jewish holiday book, make sure your story brings something new and different to the topic, a new angle, a new POV, a different way of seeing it or talking about it or telling the story. #MSWL

I would jump through hoops for submissions by Jewish #BIPOC authors, for picture books, chapter books, middle grade and YA. I'd love joyful stories, romances, fantasies, quirky and funny, and... whatcha got? #MSWL #writingcommunity

A reminder that I'm the WRONG agent for horror, thrillers, or anything murdery. I'm also the WRONG agent for sports-related anything. Send all those things to @MandyHubbard @caitforestell & @GarrettAlwert

I'm especially on the lookout for stories from historically marginalized communities (but no trauma). For biographies let me see inventors, doctors, scientists! I love fantasy & romance & mysteries. Gimme all the #BIPOC, queer, religious, disabled characters doing awesome stuff!

Opening to queries for the month of May! I'll be looking for picture books, chapter books, middle grade, & YA novels. Please look at my previous #MSWL so you can query smartly. I'll repeat some of what I'm looking for here & will be adding to this thread over the next week.

I'm currently closed to queries. #MSWL

I seem to have forgotten to close my inbox to queries, as I'd intended to. As such, I'm staying open until the end of the month. Hit me up, peeps! Check out my #MSWL and/or this thread.

Whoa. This tweet’s getting a lot of love. Reminder: I’ll only be open to queries until February 15th. Looking for YA & MG ms, especially those written by Black authors & other POC, and LGBTQIA+ folx. Please see my #MSWL threads for the right kind of stories to query me with.

Reminder that I will only be open to queries for 3 more weeks. I'm looking for Young Adult and Middle Grade manuscripts, especially those written by Black authors and other POC, as well as LGBTQIA+ folx. Please check out my #MSWL threads for the right kind of stories to send me.

You know what I love? A ticking clock. Think @rlynn_solomon's Today, Tonight, Tomorrow or @loversdiction's Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist or @NicolaYoon's The Sun is Also a Star. Give me 24 high stakes hours! #MSWL

I would LOVE an #ownvoices story featuring a Black Jewish main character. If there's a lot of food involved, even better. And loud relatives. And opinions. #MSWL

Send me #middlegrade & #YA adventure stories! Mysteries! Summer camp stories! Send me stories set during senior trips to Paris or Peru or the Grand Canyon! #MSWL
