As for me, I'm always looking for genre-blending literary fiction, accessible sci-fi and fantasy, diverse and inclusive kid-lit, and moving non-fiction.
Some recent examples from my list? Here are some by @AlisonStine @mikechenwriter @mk_england and @JamesTateHill.

I need more in my life. #mswl

It begins. I'm open to queries again at @PSLiterary!

I open up to queries again at @PSLiterary on Monday, so I've updated my wishlist!
I'd love to see more adult fiction and non-fiction this year. Send me your messy genre-blending stories, niche cookbooks, and complex memoirs.

I’m reading a manuscript that’s reminding me of Lost Planet, and goodness, do I miss that game.
I wish the sequels had kept up with all the wonder of the first one. Someone reboot it, thanks.
Also, more fantasy adventure novels with giant monsters and snow please. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I'm dying to find more accessible adult sci-fi and fantasy novels, along the lines of @ChuckWendig @pengshepherd @DelilahSDawson and @KatWithSword.
I've read everything they've written, and would love to find a SFF novel that makes me feel like The Book of M. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Still getting the occasional DM asking if I'm open to queries... and I am! :-D
Here's what I'm looking for:
Most genres of YA.
Genre blending literary fiction.
Accessible sci-fi and fantasy.
Memoir and essay collections.
Cookbooks.
You?
Query me! ericsmithrocks.com/mswl #MSWL

@DelilahSDawson I’d love to see more brown people! I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a South Asian person on screen or page in Star Wars, other than Riz Ahmed! So a brown girl would be so cool! More mental illness rep would be great too.This is also eternally on my #MSWL for YA and adult sci-fi and fantasy, please. Brown kids in space.

I'd love to find some more SFF novels that are fun, moving, diverse, and accessible.
My favorite SFF read last year was by @pengshepherd, and I'm smitten with the works of @KatWithSword @DelilahSDawson and @ChuckWendig.
The City of Brass by @SAChakrabooks is a perfect book.

@ericsmithrocks What YA would you like have come across your desk?When I open up for queries again (Springtime?), I am desperate for some more YA SFF genre blending novels, with the kind of expert world building I've seen in @RantingOwl @heidiheilig and @SanguMandanna's books. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Lately video games are BRINGING IT when it comes to emotional family narratives. My goodness.
I’d love to read a SFF novel that gives me the same feels as God of War or Horizon Zero Dawn. #mswl
Literary Agent
Reminder, I'm super open for queries now at @PSLiterary!
Looking for YA, non-fiction, literary fiction, sci-fi / fantasy, and more.

And when it comes to YA, I love just about everything.
But I'm really eager to find more diverse SFF novels and LGBTQ+ stories... books that make marginalized teens feel SEEN, not just in the now, but in far flung futures and lushly imagined fantasy worlds. #MSWL
Literary Agent
I also really want to find more accessible, devour-able sci-fi and fantasy novels.
Some of my favorites include @KatWithSword @fran_wilde and @ChuckWendig.
@SChakrabs wrote my favorite SFF novel of 2017. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Hey writer friends!

YA! SFF! Non-fiction! Cookbooks! Literary novels! Let's make some books together. bit.ly/2DS63il #MSWL

And PLEASE send me your LGBTQ+ YA. All genres, but would love some SFF.
I adore books by @robin_talley @AdamSilvera @beckyalbertalli. #MSWL
Literary Agent
Very hungry for voice-driven sci-fi and fantasy.
If you write prose that can punch me in the face like @ChuckWendig's can, email me. #MSWL
