-I’m a Southerner, and I want to lift up diverse Southern voices. Southern writers from marginalized communities, please send me your work.

-I’m outdoorsy. An avid hiker. Would love high-stakes travel/adventure memoirs.

-I work for Food & Wine magazine, I love food, & I love culinary history & cookbooks—the older & weirder, the better. I would love to see some culinary history subs in my query box.

-I consume thriller audiobooks like candy. Would love to see upmarket thrillers, particularly starring kickass women solving mysteries.

Some things about me to get a sense of who I am? Here’s a weirdly specific #MSWL thread:

-Horror movies & novels of ALL stripes for ALL ages. I particularly love the recent spate of movies using horror to express grief and anxiety, a la Hereditary, The Babadook, and Midsommar.

Horror

As a little girl who went on to take ballet for 18 years, Angelina spoke right to my heart. I pored over the illustrations for HOURS. I'll be interested to see the reissues, & I'm excited a new generation of dancers is about to get inspired.

On that note, I'd love to see a less-pink-frills-&-bows version of a kid falling in love with dance, if anyone's working on a picture book like that. Something with "Julián Is a Mermaid" energy. Really anything with "Julián Is a Mermaid" energy. 💃 #MSWL

@erin_clyburn @Megan_Manzano @Literary_Tara What’s at the TOP of your MSWL? Anything you’re dying to see?! 😁

Horror, above all. In MG, YA, and adult. All kinds of horror. I'd also love to see a great adult pop science, like Mary Roach, or bio/history of a lesser known person/event, like RADIUM GIRLS. #MSWL #askagent

First PEN15, now BOOKSMART? Give me more smart, nerdy, awkward-confident tween/teen girls with do-anything-for-each-other friendships. #MSWL
