Lastly, high concept love stories and original romcoms are always welcome. I’d love to find new and underrepresented voices in that area that are doing something different. #mswl

Literary Agent
And also, contemporary MG that’s full of adventure, humour and heart. There can be fantasy elements but I tend to love real(ish) world settings.

Literary Agent
BUT, I’d especially love to find contemporary commercial YA (horror, thriller, romance etc.) that is really nailing whatever genre it is - in a fun and interesting way.

I have opened to #submissions today! 🎉 The WL website bio is still a very good indication of what I’m after - you can check that out here: watsonlittle.com/agent/megan-ca…

FYI: I am opening to submissions tomorrow (!), and I have updated what I'm looking for here: watsonlittle.com/agent/megan-ca…In very basic terms, I am on the lookout for adult fiction and non-fiction, as well as non-fiction for age 7+, MG and YA. And, I've said it before - and I'll say it again - if you're writing something like East is East, please send it my way. #mswl

I’d really like to find a really funny and touching family drama set somewhere regional - I’m thinking like East is East or Billy Elliot? Some kind of culture/class/gender clash. If you’re writing something like this send it my way pleaseeeee. #submissions #wishlistJust FYI, I am still looking for this. I’d love a big messy Asian family drama, in particular. #mswl

We are reopening our #submissions tomorrow (eeeek!) so I thought I’d go through what I’m looking for this year in a hopefully helpful thread. #MSWLOur #submissions have reopened today, check out what I’m looking for this year below and on our website: watsonlittle.com/agent/megan-ca… #MSWL

Literary Agent
For MG readers, I’m keen to find a funny, female focused story with series potential (think Louise Rennison or Karen McCombie) and an adventure story for that age group too. I love anything creepy and spooky, so please send anything like that along to me too.

Literary Agent
In YA, I’d love to find a big epic love story that’s contemporary and someone writing horror for this age group too. I loved A Good Girls Guide to Murder and would be keen to see anything akin to that.

Literary Agent
In Non-Fiction, I’m always on the lookout for good narrative writing and memoir on the issues we’re facing in the world today. I also have particular interest in people writing about film, music and popular culture.

Literary Agent
I’m also really keen on black comedy, I loved My Sister the Serial Killer and would love to find writing in that vein as well as big juicy regional family drama that spans generations.

I’m keen to see historical fiction and gothic horror - think Stacey Halls, Laura Purcell and Bridget Collins.
