#MSWL A YA or NA historical romance with a swoony love story and a strong hook in a setting that feels different. While regency England can be fun, I’d love something that hasn’t been done before. Bonus if it’s an LGBTQIA historical romance.

#MSWL True yearning and an intense slow burn like “Heated Rivalry” by Rachel Reid or “Assistant to the Villain” series by Hannah Nicole Maehrer.

#MSWL an epic heist story in MG, YA, or NA. If you know, you know

#MSWL I’m still really hoping to find my first author/illustrator. See my wish list for more of what I look for in art styles. I’m open to picture books and graphic novels. While I’m open to any kind of story, I’d love a little fantastical whimsy.

#MSWL A relationship dynamic with Jack and Kim vibes from “Kickin' It.” Bonus if it’s an MG crush/first love story. If you know, you know.

#MSWL A middle grade mystery. It could be a cozy mystery and/or something with “The Naturals” vibes for a younger reader. Standalone or standalone with series potential preferred.

#MSWL A YA contemporary with new Deb Caletti books vibes.

#MSWL I’d really love a YA thriller/mystery in the vein of Angeline Boulley.

#MSWL I love “The Apothecary Diaries” and would love something similar. Think June Hur—a historical mystery with a slow burn romance, preferably in an underrepresented location and culture.

#MSWL A YA that encapsulates the song “Who I’d Be” from Shrek the Musical. But specifically the Rachel Zegler version.

Happy October! I wanted to share my #MSWL link again. SFA’s guidelines are below. This is also the start of a thread of specific wish list items I’d love to see in my inbox that I’ll add to when I think of other ideas.

Again, not usually on here, but I’m re-sharing my #MSWL link because I’ve updated some things. The biggest change is that I’m only looking for author/illustrators with picture books and graphic novels at this time. Thank you for understanding 😸

I’d love to find my first author/illustrator, preferably for picture books. For more info on PBs—with an updated section on art—check out my MSWL link. Some recent PBs I enjoyed are “A Little Like Magic,” “Big,” “Aloha Everything,” and “Where Three Oceans Meet.” #mswl

Some kind of romantasy or fantasy romance in YA. Standalone preferred but series potential is okay. Would love something without “I must save the world” type stakes but there’s still a solid plot and conflict #mswl

I’m a sucker for royalty stories—secret, just discovered, in hiding, etc. I love contemporary—though fantasy and historical are also cool—in YA or MG. An MG childhood favorite is “The Princess Plot,” and a recent one is “Red, White & Royal Blue” but for YA. Romance or crushes are encouraged #mswl

Happy #mswl day #querying writers! Here’s my wish list link, though there are a few specific items below. At the moment, I’m looking for children’s books, but I’d love to represent an author’s full body of work for all future projects in any age group.
